If you wish to add extra storage or living space to your property, then log cabin kits offer this type of option. The kits feature a large selection of high-quality outbuildings designed for the above-mentioned purposes. Both affordable and simple to build, the kits represent cabins, summer houses, and storage sheds. These buildings enable a homeowner to make the most of his or her outdoor area.
Adding a Guest Building
Building a kit is normally cheaper than adding an extension. Therefore, choices for kits feature amenities that are designed to suit different lifestyles and needs. For example, if you regularly receive visitors and want to establish a cosy environment or a place where they can stay, then adding a rustic log cabin will provide a quaint and inviting atmosphere and easy space solution.
Some of the choices range from charming hideaways that feature a bedroom and en-suite shower to multi-story or multi-room cabins that are designed to be fitted with bathrooms and kitchens. Cabins such as these can be transformed into self-contained dwellings too. They can also serve as a living space for an adult child or a granny annex for an elderly relative.
Garden and Summer Houses
You can also build log cabins in gardens so you can relax or enjoy the view, regardless of the weather. Cabins are both weather-proof and sturdy and often serve as summer houses or spots where a user can talk and enjoy the fresh air or relax and read a book.
Additional Storage Space
The need for adding extra storage space is often a reason for including a cabin in your backyard as well. Fortunately, you can choose from a full range of high-quality sheds that will keep your items secure and safe from variances in the weather.
For instance, you can select a shiplap shed for storing a few boxes and garden tools or choose one of the bigger models for stowing away hobby equipment and larger appliances. Dip treatments for the buildings are offered as well as an optional assembly service, if you so choose.
Children’s Playhouses
You might also consider the purchase of a cabin for use as a children’s playhouse. Whether you have kids living at home or your grandchildren regularly visit, you will have a building in which they can play or even store their toys.
Garage Your Car or Truck
Should you need to store your car, then a log cabin or garage kit is an ideal solution. Kits are made to suit various outdoor spaces. Use the kits to construct metal or wooden garages or carports. Keep your vehicles protected and out of view.
Add a Home Office
If you work at home, you can also make use of a cabin for an office. That way, you can separate your work area from your residential living space. When selecting a kit, you can choose from a cabin style or garage choice. Pavilions are also available for use in a garden or larger backyard.
Where the Timber Is Accessed
Most of the wood used in log cabin kits is a North European spruce that has been sourced from Russia or Scandinavia. Because of its density, the wood machines exceptionally well and assures a high degree of weather-proof performance. Unless otherwise stated, all cabin-type buildings are delivered in an untreated form except for the building’s base beams.
