What to do with one car garage attached to brick house?!

Here's our problem. We have a detached 2 car garage AND a one car attached garage. We have to drive THROUGH our attached garage to get to our two car garage. It's a narrow garage and a pain to drive through.

We want to demolish the useless garage. Our house and garage are brick and were built in the 40's. Is it possible to remove the garage and refinish the side of the garage is a tasteful way that wouldn't make it obvious that we demolished the garage?

To make matters more complicated, the inside of the garage is painted with lead paint. So once the garage is gone, it would leave a section on the side of our house with painted brick.

Any creative solutions?
