I have the same dreams, I plan to fit an American barn style shed as an extension to my current shed.
The upper level would have a messanin level that would be approx half the length of the shed for TV, couch, fridge and small kitchenette.
There would be a verandah that extends out from the front of this.
Then I could install a hoist that raises up through the centre where there is no messanin.
My shed would be approx 12 metres wide, approx 15 metres long with a minimum height on the lower levels of approx 3 - 4 metres.
This way there is bench space along the sides, with room for lathe and milling bench, would also like to have an english wheel and folder.
Then on the opposite side there is room for cars to be angle parked and worked on.
All just a dream at the moment but until 5 days ago I was still dreaming of driving my Cobra.

But to save costs it would be far cheaper to build a flat sided tall shed and just put a second level in one of the corners.
