My plan if it ever happens is a 24X32 with 2 10' wide doors in one end and 1 12' wide door in the side at the other end.That comesout to 720 sq.ft. but 22X30 is 660 sq.ft. maybe you could get that passed by planning.Or 22X28.I would also go for a 10-12 ft.wide second floor for a storage loft.The integrated beams sound like a good idea.I would also put as many windows as allowed for ventilation and light,you want to bar them so you keep your tools.Also build a lean-to style compressor and lawn shed to keep your floor space yours.
