Thinking about adding a storage room but bored with the usual shed? A log cabin shed could be just what you need! Here’s why it might be the perfect addition to your outdoor space and a great solution for your storage needs.
What Is a Log Cabin Shed?
The log cabin shed concept combines a log cabin and a shed in one garden building. It’s built primarily with logs or timber planks, but it’s mainly used for storage. Take this BillyOh model, for instance. Its heavy-duty wooden planks form the walls, and it has a simple, pitched roof covered in green mineral felt. It’s the perfect example of combining a log cabin design with the wooden shed’s practical function.
Some models are designed for dual purposes, featuring a two-part structure. The larger section is for relaxation and entertainment, while the other part is dedicated to storage. This setup maximises utility without requiring a separate building.
So, if you want to upgrade your garden with a versatile garden room, a log cabin shed is a suitable choice.
Why Invest in a Log Cabin Shed?
The extra storage space is the key point of a cabin shed, but the benefits don’t stop there! Here’s what makes it a worthwhile investment:
One investment, two great features
Get twice the value of a single log cabin shed purchase! You’ll especially enjoy this perk if you opt for a log cabin with a side store unit, such as our BillyOh Tianna model. Use the left portion as a log cabin workshop, art studio, or summer house. Meanwhile, the right part offers ample storage for gardening equipment, bikes, or outdoor furniture.
This saves you from buying two separate buildings, which is perfect if you’re on a budget. The best of both worlds in a one-time investment, indeed!
Built tough for all seasons
Most garden log cabins are manufactured using heavy-duty tongue and groove (T&G) log walls. In this construction method, each log has a “tongue” on one edge and a “groove” on the opposite. The tongue on one log slides into the groove on the next log, creating a tight fit and improving the wall’s stability.
Log cabin sheds guarantee this feature—take a cue from our BillyOh Clubman unit. Its T&G log walls provide better protection from the weather and keep the entire building well-insulated. This makes it dependable year-round, come rain or shine.
Tip: When choosing your log cabin shed, look for T&G construction to ensure you’re investing in something durable that will last for many years!
It gives you more garden room
Suppose you’re torn between getting a log cabin or a shed but worried about your limited outdoor space. Or maybe you want the durability of this garden room design but also plan to use the other part of your backyard for something else. A log cabin shed will save the day!
The log cabin and a shed in one design is a smart way to save space. It lets you use one area for two different things. Most of these sheds are medium-sized, like 12×8 or 14×8, but you can also find smaller ones, like this apex log store, starting at 7×8. Tuck it in the corner, and you’ll have more room for whatever else you need!
Now, if you think these benefits meet your needs, it’s a good sign that a log cabin shed is right for you. Check out our range of log sheds for sale if you’re interested and want to see more options. We offer various styles and sizes at reasonable prices, so don’t miss out!
