Utility Cabin

Add a covered front porch, a residential entry door, three windows and taller sidewalls, and a storage building stops being storage. The Utility Cabin is built to be occupied — as a studio, an office, a guest space or a retreat at the back of the property.

Worth knowing

It arrives as a finished shell with the porch, door and windows in place. Insulation, wiring, interior finishes and anything else needed for regular occupancy are local work, and whether that requires a permit depends entirely on your jurisdiction and how you intend to use it.

Floor plans

The floor plan sets where the doors and windows go. This model is offered in 1 plan — the same building, laid out differently. Tell us how you will approach it and what goes inside, and the right one is usually obvious.
