Eleven Bays in Evergreen: A Home and Shop Built for Car Enthusiasts
Updated: Sep 30
Car collectors who want to live in the foothills usually have to make a trade. They get the views and the quiet, but they give up the garage. Level ground is hard to come by in the mountains, and a big garage needs a lot of it.
This Evergreen home with shop space didn't make that trade. It has 11 garage spaces on one level acre, split between a 6-car attached garage and a separate 5-car shop. The house on top of all that has been rebuilt system by system.
The Garage Setup
The 6-car attached garage is heated, insulated, and finished, with oversized doors and its own exterior access door. That's enough room for the daily drivers, the weekend car, and a truck, without anything parked outside through a Colorado winter.
The detached 5-car shop is where the real work gets done. It has:
New doors, windows, and corrugated metal siding
Custom shelving and cabinets
A propane Modine heater, so it stays usable in January
A 2-post, 10,000 lb car lift that's negotiable with the sale
Two buildings means you can keep the clean cars in one and the project car in the other. The collection doesn't have to share space with the grinder.
The House Keeps Up
Mountain homes this age often come with deferred maintenance. This one comes with receipts:
Standing-seam metal roof (2015)
Solar system rewired with a new Tesla inverter (2026)
Whole-house generator
New breaker box with whole-house surge protection
Both bathrooms remodeled (2024 and 2025)
Driveway resealed (2026)
The farmhouse ranch has a vaulted, open main floor and a finished walkout level, with 4 bedrooms and 3 baths across 3,258 square feet. Outside, there's a large patio with a gas fireplace, a hot tub, a composite deck, and more than $200,000 in hardscape and LED lighting.
The generator and heated shop matter more in the mountains than on paper. When a storm knocks the power out, the lights stay on, and the shop stays warm.
The Numbers
At $1,200,000, that works out to about $109,000 per garage space, with the house, the acre, and the views included. There's no HOA, so nobody can object to what you park, build, or work on. The property is zoned A-1 in Jefferson County, on a paved public road, minutes from downtown Evergreen and Conifer.
Who This Evergreen Home With Shop Is For
This home suits a collector who wants to drive the canyon roads they live on, a restorer who needs a real shop without renting one, or anyone who's tired of choosing between a mountain address and a garage that fits.
Properties like this don't come up often in the foothills. If this one isn't the right fit, it shows what's possible, and we're watching for the next one.
