Thinking of adding a bath in what is now our garage. It's far away from the sewer hookup, so I was thinking of getting a macerating toilet to push the waste sideways 50 feet and then a little uphill to connect to current waste lines. Then comes the complication: below this line, at the 25 foot mark, we have a small basement room that my wife wants to put a utility sink - it's a craft room, so for washing out paint brushes, etc. That sink would sit 8 feet below the line I'd be running from the toilet.

What's the best way to make all this work? We have nothing purchased right now, but the basement room is actually under construction - getting ready for concrete next week - and if I need to put a pit or something in the craft basement room, now is the time.
 
what about putting a pump in the floor of the craft room or nearby and pumping the toilet into it? you need a sink in the toilet room also
 
Make sure that the system you are interested in will pump that far. Saniflo makes a good one. You can put the
toilet system in and run your sink into it as long as it runs down to the toilet. You have to tie into a main drain somewhere.
You will also have to run a vent. AAV's are not allowed on these.
