When you are looking at house for sale, it is important to consider where your car is going to be living from now on too. Will it be a neat driveway, a two car garage, or something a little bit different? Not only are garages important for security, but they can help protect your vehicle from the elements. We've found five of the most impressive garages so you can get creative when it comes to making the best of your new home.

The Ultimate Combination

If you want the best of both worlds, why not combine your garage with your driveway? Your neighbours will be amazed when they see your car rising impressively out of the ground. This works especially well if your car happens to be a Porsche!

The Showcase Dream

A driveway garage may not appeal to you if you think that your car needs slightly more protection. Enter the showcase garage, a room big enough to display all of your classic and beautiful vehicles. It's so pretty that you might just want to live in here too.

Functional Space

If being able to drive in and out of your garage is a pretty important factor for you, you may find yourself dreaming of a garage like this. There is space for at least four cars, and two double doors giving you room to manoeuvre.

Heated Driveway

The snow has proved a bit of a problem the past couple of winters, but an easy way to resolve this - at home at least - is to put in a heated driveway. Sod's Law probably means that it wouldn't snow the year you installed it...

Just Right

Housing developers like David Wilson Homes are skilled in creating spaces that are just right for their new owners. Many of us would be incredibly pleased if we owned a neat and tidy home like the one above!
