gf and i will probably build a smaller house sometime in the future with a 3-4 car garage as we don't plan to have kids and half of our current house (basement) is pretty much unused.

You just described me pretty well. Just moved to the larger house (not smaller) with a larger garage and have a wife so I just have a few years on you
We have a lot of family that visits and we like to throw a lot of parties so we went for a larger house with good entertainment spaces... and 5 bedrooms for the relatively frequent guests.
