Cottage Shed Tall

Cottage styling, more usable wall

Cottage Shed Tall — Cottage styling, more usable wall

The Cottage Shed with additional wall height and two more floor plans. You keep the styling that made the shorter version worth choosing and gain the headroom that makes the interior properly usable.

Worth knowing

Worth the step up if the building will be entered daily, or if you intend to line the walls. The roof profile also gives slightly more protection at the eave than a flat gable.

Features

  • Added wall height
  • Five floor plans
  • Cottage roof profile

Common uses

  • Storage plus light work
  • Garden and potting space
