Alongside their log cabin and summerhouse designs, Summerhouse24 also offers a range of insulated shipping containers repurposed into contemporary garden rooms. The results are some of the best-looking shipping container garden rooms we've seen.
Summerhouse24 offer several designs with different door and window configurations. The Container Garden Office V-1, for instance, has a set of French doors with three narrow windows spaced evenly alongside. In comparison, the Container Garden Studio V-5 has a whole wall of glazing on the front elevation.
The core structure is a steel shipping container. This has been fully insulated with a spray-on PUR foam, so there are no gaps in the insulation. Externally, the containers are clad in Siberian Larch, a durable finish popular in garden room design. It can be left to weather naturally to a silver-grey, or it takes stain well if you fancy a splash of colour.
Internally, Scandinavian Spruce is fitted on the walls and ceiling, and this is mixed with oak flooring, creating a light modern space. Completed with black uPVC double glazed doors and windows, Summerhouse24's container garden rooms are designed for year-round use. This quick video tour gives you an idea of the look and feel of the buildings:
The sea container garden rooms are pre-wired electrically. The package includes LED ceiling lights, six interior power sockets, three exterior power sockets and one exterior light.
There are options to add an electrical panel heater or underfloor heating, which is a good choice for the coldest days of the year.
These shipping container garden rooms could be used as a home office, art studio or home gym. Interestingly, the Shipping Container Sauna Cabin V6 has a sauna and shower room alongside the main room.
Delivered fully assembled
Summerhouse24 deliver their insulated shipping container garden rooms fully assembled. You will need to talk to them about how far from the road they can deliver and what sort of base your building will need before you order.
The beauty of having a garden room delivered fully assembled like this is as soon as the electrics are connected to the house, your new room is ready to use.
