Thanks for all the nice comments guys. I will post some pics of the inside later today. Lance I did not do the brickwork, but I did cut all the Indiana Limestone on there.

Here are the requested inside photos. I tried to let my wife decorate the inside of her space after all she did let me decorate our bedroom in oil cans and we are awaiting a gas pump for the bedroom as well. She requested the old highway signs and still wants a few more. No real chance of pumps going in here any time soon, but that is why I have the pole barn.

Here are a couple of neat features. I always hate the garage door rails so I had them tucked in the second story. Also had my contractor build a coat rack out of old door knobs I salvaged over the years. Instead of drywall I had the walls covered in 1x8's and then really thinned out the white paint to give it a old white washed look.

that looks like a cool place too hang out, carriage house appears to have that empty look- looks like a good setting for a museum...
