Garage Conversion into Cabana/Rumpus Room

Hello!  Curious if anyone can share their experience with a garage conversion in the City of Alameda.  We do not use our detached garage and would like to convert it into a cabana/rumpus room to expand our small yard.  The project would require opening up one wall and we plan to keep the rest as-is.  We have leads on several structural engineers and alternate off-street parking is not a concern.  

Recommendations for contractors/designers who have handled this type of conversion and/or price estimates also welcome!

I would suggest joining the NextDoor.com group for your neighborhood in Alameda - it's become very active in the last year of so and has become the "go-to" place for all these sorts of questions.
