Your guide to choosing the perfect small garden building
If you’re looking to create more space in your home - whether for work or play, our garden buildings offer a great alternative to a traditional home extension. Garden buildings are particularly popular as they provide additional living space without costing a fortune or taking up too much space in your garden!
The benefits of small garden buildings
Here are some of the key benefits to having a small garden building in your outdoor area.
Convenient - A garden room allows easy access to your personal space whenever you want. Our buildings also include residential-standard insulation so that you can enjoy your new build all year round.
Private – As your garden buildings is separate from your home, it creates a sense of privacy for you to relax and escape from the stresses of home life.
Versatile - Unlike an extension, you can be more creative with a garden building. Why not create your own home office? Library? Gym or even a games room? Your luxury gazebo offers a blank canvas that you can furnish and decorate to suit any purpose.
Compact – Your small garden building can provide a convenient living space without taking up too much space in your garden.

Add value to your home – in a previous blog, we discussed how an outdoor building can add value to your home. But it’s important to note that now more than ever, luxury gazebos are increasingly popular as they allow people to work from home in style. This gives your home a unique feature and beautiful point of interest for potential buyers if you decide to sell in the future.
Do I need planning permission to build a small garden building?
In most cases, you do not require planning permission to build a gazebo so long as you’re within the regulations and permitted development guidelines.
Usually, your main considerations will be:
If your gazebo is placed within 2m of a boundary, your garden building must not exceed 2.5m in height (including the roof) without planning permission. If your build exceeds 2m from a boundary, you can extend up to 3m in exterior height.
Also, your building must not take up more than 50% of the total land surrounding your property.
But don’t worry, we can help guide you through this.
