Size

2m x 2m garden room – the perfect small space solution

Measuring 2m x 2m, the Chad Pod is one of the smallest garden rooms available today. With a height of 2.5m, it adheres to Permitted Development guidelines, allowing most homeowners to install it without the need for planning permission. Thanks to its size, it can be placed close to your garden boundaries, maximising available space.

The Chad Pod is also customisable, with Bridge Garden Rooms offering a bespoke service for those who need alternative dimensions.

Construction

Superior insulation with SIPs core

The Chad Pod, like all Bridge Garden Rooms, is built using Structurally Insulated Panels (SIPs). These high-performance panels offer excellent insulation, making the space comfortable throughout the seasons. Double-glazed windows and doors further enhance its energy efficiency, reducing the need for extensive heating. For those seeking additional warmth, an electric wall heater can be installed, though the compact, well-insulated design keeps running costs low.

Premium features in a compact garden room

Despite its small footprint, the Chad Pod boasts high-end finishes typically found in larger garden rooms. The exterior is clad in Western Red Cedar, known for its stylish look and low maintenance, with a lifespan of over 20 years. Inside, the walls and ceiling are plastered and decorated, creating a polished and bright atmosphere uncommon in small garden rooms.
