I bought my house back in 2009 . It had a 1,600 square ft shop . The shop was in good shape but looked pretty plain . Last year i added a 12×16 ft cedar deck with storage underneath and then this past week i ripped the vinyl siding off the front and added 1×10 pine .
This is how the shop looked before .

i also have board and batten on my shop, but i dont have any upstairs accommodations, you have rooms up there, maybe a spare bedroom for when you have a long work session, and you can just drop into the bed with your wood stove going, and sleep mighty well out there in the winter…what say ye john….....
