If you really want a garage bad enough, you could probably squeeze into a 2 bedroom narrow townhouse in the far flung suburbs in 3-5 years, especially once you job hop and get that ~20% raise.

People who are buying 2+ bedroom homes these days are dual-income households. It shouldn't be too hard to find a like-minded partner who earns 6-figures and has a property of their own if you have the same. People tend to partner up with others like themselves.
