If a will states you are left a house and contents does that include the contents of an attached garage?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Assuming the Will doesn't specify that the garage and its contents have been left to you, it depends on what is in the garage. If it is household goods, yes (furniture and white goods in storage for example).
If the Will makes no other provision for the contents, then probably. If there are cars and similar in the garage and they have been left to somebody else in the Will you are not entitled to them.
If somebody else has been left the residue of the estate, then cars could possibly be included in that - cars are not considered to be 'contents'.
attached garage? yes deffo yours
it is amazing what cat fur and nit picking occurs after a family death - I am sorry for your loss. and it goes on....
( Albert died so second wife Carol inherited and then she died and it passed to Carol's brudda, Desmond who in the usual way backed up a pantechnicon and emptied the house
and Albert's two children complained that D had got rid of all their father's stuff
Myy comment was he can do that, and was lucky to get out of the pub alive
