A delightful wooden playhouse suitable for a young royal, the Shire Stork Kids Wooden Playhouse features a charming veranda, balusters, and various other enchanting attributes.

Hailing from the United Kingdom, this Wendy house is crafted from superior 12mm shiplap cladding on a sturdy 34mm frame. Boasting a high-quality 12mm tongue and groove floor paired with an 8mm OSB roof, this playhouse ensures exceptional durability. With its apex roof that includes a log-cabin-style extension and a weatherproof felt covering, it prevents rain from seeping in. Adding to its aesthetic appeal are decorative bargeboards and two diamond-shaped finials.

The traditionally crafted partially-glazed door and windows are the result of skilled joinery. The door is equipped with a roller catch, a daisy-design ring handle, and a full-length safety hinge, allowing secure and easy entry. Inside, the two openable windows provide ample natural light and ventilation. To guarantee safety, all glazing is made from shatterproof styrene, a more secure alternative to regular glass. The playhouse also features two small air vents.

Compliant with BS EN 71 (CE) safety standards, this wooden playhouse is constructed using FSC®-certified timber sourced from sustainable forests. It is dip-treated and backed by an impressive 10-year anti-rot guarantee along with an additional 1-year parts warranty. Both warranties are subject to adherence to the manufacturer’s assembly, usage, and maintenance guidelines.

For convenient assembly, the playhouse comes with comprehensive instructions and an installation kit. Please note that due to the dip-treatment process, this playhouse is delivered in a honey-brown timber shade. Customers have the option to customize the color with paint if desired.

Delivery to most UK locations is complimentary. The playhouse also comes with a 10-year anti-rot guarantee and a 1-year parts warranty.

FAQs

The size of the shed depends on what you plan to store or use it for. Measure the items you plan to store and consider any additional space for moving around or future storage needs. Common sizes range from small (6×8 feet) for basic storage to large (12×24 feet) for workshops or extensive storage.
Sheds are typically made from wood, metal, or plastic. Wood is aesthetically pleasing and customizable but requires more maintenance. Metal sheds are durable and secure but can be prone to rust. Plastic sheds are low-maintenance and easy to assemble but may not be as sturdy as wood or metal.

Permit requirements vary by location. Check with your local building department or zoning office. Typically, small sheds (under 120 square feet) may not require a permit, but larger ones or those with electrical installations often do.

A solid foundation is crucial for stability and longevity. Options include concrete slabs, gravel bases, or wooden platforms. Choose a foundation based on your shed’s size, material, and the ground conditions of your site.
Look for sheds with features like weather-resistant materials, proper sealing, and robust construction. Ensure the shed has a good roof overhang, proper drainage, and secure locking mechanisms to protect against theft and weather damage.
Assembly time depends on the size and complexity of the shed. Small, simple sheds can be assembled in a few hours, while larger or more complex sheds may take a full day or more. Professional installation is also an option for those who prefer not to DIY.
Maintenance depends on the material. Wooden sheds need periodic painting or staining and checking for rot or pests. Metal sheds may need rust prevention treatments. Plastic sheds require minimal maintenance, typically just cleaning as needed.
Moving a shed is possible but can be challenging, especially for larger structures. It’s easier to move a smaller shed if it has a solid base. Consider the logistics and potential costs of moving before installation. If moving is likely, a portable shed might be a better option.
Many sheds come with detailed assembly instructions, making them suitable for DIY installation, especially smaller models. However, larger or more complex sheds may require professional installation to ensure they are properly and safely assembled. Assess your skill level, available tools, and the complexity of the shed before deciding.
