My suggestion is, if your car matches the sizes briefly explained above, to leave your car on the road out front, get all your luggage in, then take it round to our garage. The garage is accessed from inside the house by walking through the kitchen and down the little steps. Once you walk down the 6 steps, you will see the garage door. Please open it and enter. The electric button for the garage door is on the wall on the left-hand side as you walk through the door. This will open the garage.



As you walk out the front door of 71E Bellevue Pl, the access to our garage is approx 100m to the right of the property as you walk out (towards Lake Michigan) Just before 1000 N Lake Shore Plaza there is a tight turn to right, which will take you down the private road behind our house to the garage. 100m up that road, you will find the garage.
