A fancy, condo-style storage area, complete with a clubhouse, dubbed Garagetown, is coming to Anchorage. The venture is aimed at people who have a lot of fancy toys but no place to store them.

"It's for all these people with fancy houses who have all these toys, but restrictive covenants in their subdivisions won't let them store their toys," said Chuck Spinelli, homebuilder and Garagetown partner.

Spinelli partnered with Pat Reilly, formally of Rainproof Roofing in Anchorage, and Garagetown USA's Tom Johnson and Cliff Mort, both of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

The project is currently in the permit stage.

Located off Toloff Street, behind the Home Depot in South Anchorage, Garagetown will feature 73 units, varying in size from 15-by-40 feet to 32-by-50 feet. Costs will range from $80,000 to $185,000, with a $30 to $40 a month condo fee.

Units will feature 110-volt outlets, a 30-amp dedicated RV circuit, climate control and will be pre-wired for cable and phone access.

The garage condos aren't just for playthings, they are also ideal for businesses, such as doctors or title companies, that have to store records for a long time period.

It will be Alaska's first, but Garagetowns have cropped up across six Western states over the past two years.

But Alaska will have the best clubhouse, Spinelli said. The 700-square-foot gathering spot - Spinelli called it the equivalent of a hunting lodge - will feature floor drains for washing vehicles, a small wet bar and likely a big-screen television.

A covered and heated cigar-smoking area is just outside.

"People go out and do their little adventures, and come back to Garagetown and swap stories in the clubhouse," he said. "We were thinking the clubhouse would be kind of hokey, but someone who sells these says that without a clubhouse, it's just a storage house."
