Generally, here's the rule I follow with stuff like this: If every house on the block has a garage and you remove it from your house, that's an expected facet of the home that is lost and you will objectively lose value when comparing to another house from a "market value" perspective; especially from an appraiser's point of view.

Block it off when you want, with a tenant that can afford $750/week and afford to be on vacation.
