You might report it to the county/city building department. My guess is that they don't have a residential permit, and the department will make the owners convert it back to a garage.

While I normally agree with Mr. Cohen, I do not see enough to make a big stink about it.
You may have to be neighbors with these people for many years.
Cool it!
