You're giving me some great ideas for my next coop!

The chicken door is on the side between the garage. There is no picture of it. I put it on that side to reduce drafts/wind from entering the coop. On the first picture there is a door to get into the run between the garage and the coop. The chicken door/ramp is right behind it.
 
NICE, NICE COOP !!! Love the way it all blends. Looks great. Bet your girls will be happy...along with their roo. We just finished a second one that's on the same idea as yours but our door is on the high....6 ft...end and windows on each side...back , 4ft high is solid. All of our eaves are ventilation too that can be closed in severe weather.
Happy wintering.

Great looking coop. It matches house so well and surely cannot be offensive to neighbors. I really like the overhang at the egg door. So many do not think of that until it is too late.

I would consider adding hardware cloth mesh 1/2" x 1/2" all along bottom to discourage coons. They are notorious for reaching thru the welded wire fencing to decapitate chooks. If you have a dog out there tho, 24/7 then do not bother.
