Just another idea for short term storage, to get your cars out of the off site parking. Rent 2 lockers that the cars will fit in.
When I moved and downsized the shop, I rented a 10X24 storage locker 25 miles from the new house, but it was a rural area, so rent was CHEAP...$80/month. I PACKED it full with all the "stuff" from my previous shop for 2 years while getting concrete floor poured in the new shed and finishing the interior of the existing 1,200 sq ft building for heat and lighting. Like Bill, it is wonderful having everything in 1 place now. I used to move 2 cars every fall to outside storage to have room to work in the old shop and bring them back every spring. No more of that crap.
And yes, acreage is the key to much of this ability, here and at the old place and you will never see me living under HOA control...
