I'm wondering if it's a reasonable strategy to just remove all of the
slate from the garage, save the usable slate for reuse on the house, and
just replace the garage roof with asphalt.

Repair the slate. you havnt even bought the house and already what you
are thinking of doing will lower its value, not to smart.

How much would a slate roof on an unattached garage behind the house add to the
overall property value?

On a $500,000 home it could be a $25,000 mistake.
