Embrace the elegance of this sophisticated Loxley 16′ x 8′ Stanton Summer House With Side Shed that skillfully integrates a distinct storage area, making it a valuable extension to your outdoor living space. Standing at an eaves height of approximately 7 ft, this summer retreat offers a luxurious and capacious interior. This contemporary garden haven is an ideal setting for al fresco dining and unwinding. The crafted double doors feature a mortice lock, while the single door is equipped with a padbolt awaiting your personal padlock. Both the double doors and fixed windows are glazed with styrene safety glass. Built on sturdy 44mm square framing and dressed in planed shiplap tongue and groove boards sourced from the finest grade of slow-grown pine, this structure radiates resilience. The floor and roof are embraced by 12mm matching T&G boards, and the roof is adorned with supplied mineral felt. This summerhouse comes coated with a honey brown dip treatment as a base preservative, awaiting your preferred topcoat of paint or stain upon installation. The displayed image showcases the potential with your creative touch. Remember to allocate space for the roof overhang and painting access during placement. For those opting for factory installation: Your order will include delivery and installation to your prepped site, which must be level and adequately sized. Grass, soil, or gravel won’t suffice due to their susceptibility to shifting under the building’s weight. Upon ordering, a delivery day selection link will be sent, along with live tracking details on the designated day. Before setting up your sanctuary, prepare a flat and level base of sufficient dimensions; grass, soil, or gravel are ill-suited for the weight-bearing task at hand.

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.
