Transparently priced Sanctum Garden Studios

Sanctum Garden Studios offers four distinct garden room ranges, balancing functionality, aesthetics, and value for money.

They are transparent about their building costs, listing the prices for the different ranges and size options on their website. These prices include the foundation system, building installation, and VAT. The only extra expense, as Sanctum Garden Studios makes clear, is the final electrical connection between the studio and your house, which you would coordinate with a local electrician. Such transparency ensures buyers face no unexpected surprises.

Garden studios are perfect for crafting

If you are a crafter, having a dedicated space to unleash your creativity can make all the difference. This 3m x 2.4m building by Sanctum Garden Studios is a great example of a garden craft room.

Unlike other types of garden buildings, such as sheds or summerhouses. Garden studios are fully insulated and double-glazed, meaning you can comfortably use them throughout the year. Regardless of the season or weather conditions, you can escape to your creative sanctuary and immerse yourself in your craft without limitations.

Customised Sanctum Garden Studio with a pared back vibe

Garden studio with an industrial vibe

This recent project by Sanctum Garden Studios has caught our attention because of its pared-back style. Rather than opt for white walls and ceiling that create a room akin to that in a new house, the owners asked for them to be lined with MDF.

The exterior features horizontal Cedar cladding with shadow gaps.
