The concept of a man cave has been around for years, usually tucked away in a family’s basement, den, or media room. It’s a man’s refuge from the shared spaces and provides an escape, even a few minutes of solitude, in a room that caters only to his sensibilities.
However, the latest trend in man caves is taking place away from the home. Men looking for the perfect situation are purchasing dedicated storage units tailored exactly to their needs. What looks like a typical storage complex from the outside becomes an all-in-one getaway for men looking to relax and indulge their favorite hobbies.
This trend is taking off quickly – units are sold as quickly as they’re built, with another buyer lined up for the next one. These units offer people (not just men, as there are plenty of women owners too) a safe place to store their sports cars, RVs, boats, and other toys. While that was the initial premise, owners are free to customize the space as they see fit. Custom floor coatings are often installed to protect the surface from weather and the usual debris that comes from working on cars and other vehicles.
The spaces come as bare-bones storage units, but owners are quick to add personal touches. Some choose to install car lifts to more easily work on their vehicles, while others turn their units into a cozy home away from home that wouldn’t look out of place in a suburban basement (owners aren’t allowed to use the space as a residence, though they’re permitted to occasionally spend the night). These units range from the less-expensive, heated garage with a mini fridge to the upscale, two-story bachelor pad with a full kitchen and living room.
Located near the Denver Bronco’s practice facility, ManCaves offer first-class units ranging from 400 to 1,400 square feet, with listings starting at $60,000 and up to $200,000. ManCaves currently have four available units valued around $130,00 for its convenient location and unlimited customization. Should you need immediate space, GarageCondos has 8 locations in Colorado with higher availability and similar customization options. All facilities are secure and gated, allowing owners 24/7 access to their personal space which includes an invitation to the “Owner’s Lounge”, functioning as a community clubhouse.
Though not everyone is willing or able to purchase a dedicated storage facility to turn into a playroom for grownups, you can always create a similar feel at home – maybe you’ve got a basement or spare room that, with a little work, can become your own dedicated man cave. And any home improvement project should start from the ground up – in this case, with a new floor coating that lasts for years and makes your man cave look spectacular.
