This thoughtfully designed L-shaped insulated garden building by Executive Garden Rooms combines three functional spaces under one roof—a home office, a discreet storage room, and a canopied area perfect for outdoor entertaining. Sitting on a 25-square-metre footprint, the two wings are united by a patio area that enhances the building's versatility as a work and social space.
Light-Filled Home Office
The home office is a bright, inviting space with high-spec aluminium bi-fold doors that open on to the garden, creating an ideal setting for work. Positioned over the desk, an additional window allows fresh air and natural light to flow in. The office is finished with plastered and painted walls, a wooden floor, and fitted storage units, which provide convenient storage and help keep the space organised. For connectivity, a hardwired internet connection runs from the main house, ensuring reliable internet access.
The electrical setup includes LED downlights, ample power sockets, a smoke alarm, heating, and external lighting for year-round comfort and functionality.
Discreet Storage Room
A storage room is located in the corner of the L-shaped layout. Accessed by a half-glazed external door, this room features practical OSB wall lining for durability. Inside, fitted cupboards and shelving provide extra storage space, keeping the garden organised and clutter-free.
Sheltered Area for Outdoor Entertaining
The covered barbeque area offers an inviting indoor-outdoor space, perfect for use throughout the year, even in less predictable weather. Covered areas like this have grown in popularity for garden rooms, allowing homeowners to enjoy their outdoor spaces while staying sheltered.
Contemporary Exterior with Durable Cladding
Western Red Cedar cladding gives this garden building a modern, natural aesthetic. Executive Garden Rooms applied a UV-protective oil to each Cedar plank to preserve its warm, reddish-brown hue. The owners can reapply UV oil every few years to maintain the colour or allow the wood to age to a silver-grey naturally.
The Cedar cladding is complemented by Cedral cement fibre boards on the rear walls, chosen for their low-maintenance durability. Cedral boards are pigmented during manufacturing, ensuring long-lasting colour with no need for upkeep. The dark grey Cedral chosen here pairs beautifully with the window and door frames, enhancing the overall style.
