you have significant space for a nice layout...i think that you should go with a "Dogbone" type layout to utilize the space you have...there are many ,many, websites that can explain the "dogbone layout track plan." Do a search on the 'puter for dogbone layouts and with a bit of imagination you can come up with a very nice layout with lots of sidings, spurs, and even a good size yard to incoorperate in a "dogbone" that can be an easily accessible layout....Chuck[:D]

Have a space that is 12x23 and I have roughed out a double dog bone layout with a yard and service tracks. Got some help on layout design sig on Yahoo. I have the layout posted under Arrow Creek and Western in the file section. The play seemed to work well and give me additional room for a work area along one wall. The space is really one walled off section of a three car garage in our new home that is being built. Good luck with your plan.
