There’s just never enough space for the projects you want, is there? Well, you could get a head start by picking up this Burbank, CA, property. Not far away from Bob’s Big Boy hamburger restaurant, in the Media District you’ll find this custom-built Mediterranean house, designed and built by the current owners. The house has an open floor plan throughout.

Oh, wait… here’s the stuff you want to know. According to the listing agent, the garage was planned from the beginning as part of the home. With very high ceilings, fluorescent lighting throughout, a car lift, compressed air lines, tall garage doors and an elevator from the garage to the houses main floor, you’ll won’t have to take your current garage apart and move it.

With space for five cars on the floor and one on the lift, there is plenty of extra space and built-in storage. A workbench, cabinets and workshop space are included. From the outside, it looks like a three car garage, but is a very deep. At about 1300 square feet, you could likely add two more car lifts to the garage without major problems.

The garage is wired with a 440-amp circuit capacity and supply to the 220V electrical outlets is 50amps each. The walls and the ceiling are all finished with drywall, and painted nicely, with some insulation in place, so unless you’re repainting, there’s nothing to stop you from getting to work.

Jay Leno films the Tonight Show right down the street at the NBC studio, still there just for the Tonight Show and Jay. If you have an interesting project sitting in the driveway, you never know if he might stop by. His Big Dog Garage is just a few miles away at the Burbank Airport.

This Toluca Lake property is not yet MLS-listed and the asking price is a mere $1,590,000. Given the current economy, there may be some room for negotiation. Who knows? You might get it for $1,200,000 and you could rent out the upstairs to some media-type executive.
