What are the benefits of wooden summerhouses?

Have you got a large amount of unused garden space? Have you considered building a summerhouse? Here are our top benefits of building a wooden summerhouse.




They Extend Your Living Space

Summerhouses are a great extension of your current living space and provide you with that extra room that you can use all year round. Summerhouses are great for using as a socialising space away from your house. You can leave the mess here until the next day rather than if you were to socialise in your living room you would want to ideally tidy before bed.


Great For Extra Guests and Income

Renovating your entire house can be expensive, but you may enjoy having guests over to stay. Instead of doing house renovations why not invest in a wooden summerhouse instead? Rather than disturb the structure of your home, a summerhouse is a great solution, and they are extremely cost-effective. Creating the Perfect Granny annex is an ideal solution for guests as it allows them and you to have some privacy. You can decorate your summerhouse in whatever you want, it doesn’t have to go with the theme of your home. You do not just have to use summerhouses for guest accommodation you can turn the space into an office space and rent this out to a one-person business that doesn’t want to work right out of their home. Summerhouses are great for earning that extra income and making use of the space that you are not using.


A Great Place For Hobbies

A summerhouse is a great place to carry out your favourite hobbies without disturbing the rest of your house. Summerhouses are a great space for yoga, workouts, meditation. You can design your summerhouse to tailor your individual needs which is one of the great things about investing in a summerhouse.

Wooden Summerhouses Are Eco-Friendly and Long-Lasting

Wooden summerhouses are not only much more affordable compared to summerhouses made from brick, concrete, or stone but they are very quick to put together after you decide to purchase one. An idea could be you can rent out your summerhouse to those who are travelling for a bit of extra income. There are plenty of ways in which you can go about doing this nowadays, for example, Airbnb.

 

They Are Energy Efficient

Wooden summerhouses are extremely energy efficient. Most people tend to like having a fully functioning summerhouse with built-in electrics and a lot of wooden summerhouses have energy-efficient features, thus meaning that you can hopefully save on your energy bills. Wood is a natural insulator so you will be able to effectively regulate the temperature of your summerhouse. Another great thing about wood is that it is a thermal insulator and can keep your summerhouse warm which makes it even more peaceful and cosy and wood is a natural noise absorber which is great if you are hosting gatherings in your summerhouse.

How Versatile Are Summerhouses?

Can Transform Into A Workspace

Your summerhouse does not just have to be used only for socialising. Since the pandemic began, millions of people have adapted to working from home life. It could be an idea to consider transforming your summerhouse into a home office. Having a home office that is not actually in your home may make you feel more productive and set for the day because you feel like you have left your house to go for work. Having your own home office outside means that you have limited distractions thus making you more productive. See our post on Things to Remember When Building a Garden Room.


Summerhouses Can Be Used For All Seasons

The very name ‘summerhouse’ conjures up images of sunshine and good weather, however, summerhouses do not have to be used solely in summer, they can be used all year round which makes them a great and worthy investment.


Great For Extra Storage Space

All of our houses are coming down with items that we don’t need but cannot get rid of just yet. A summerhouse is a great space for extra storage and can help you to feel more organised. You can store a range of things here such as garden tools and equipment (saves them from taking up space in your garden), you can store holiday decorations here, Christmas presents, whatever is taking up space in your home, store them in your summer house.


Summerhouses have so much to offer and offer so many benefits. Are you considering investing in one? Get in touch with us today at Garden Buildings UK and we will see what wooden summerhouse suits you and your garden.

Oriental Garden
By All Things Garden Buildings 30 Jan, 2023
Oriental gardens, with their lush foliage and tranquil setting, have long been a favourite for homeowners looking to add a touch of Eastern culture to their outdoor living spaces. But what makes an oriental garden unique, and how can you create one in your own backyard? An oriental garden is an incredibly unique, tranquil and serene way to bring a traditional Asian element into your backyard or living space. This style of landscaping typically features natural elements such as rocks, ponds, streams, trees and shrubs that are native to the area in which it's located. Pathways made of gravel or stepping stones are also common components of an oriental garden in order to provide a peaceful atmosphere and encourage wandering around while taking in all the beauty. In addition to these natural elements, zen-style features such as small bridges, sculptures, stone lanterns and other decorative pieces are often incorporated into oriental gardens to bring a greater sense of peace and balance. Oriental gardens can be designed for any size space and include a variety of plants from various climates and countries. For example, Japanese maples are popular choices for this type of garden as they add beautiful color during the spring season and their leaves turn deep red during the autumn months. Bonsai trees can also make a great addition to an oriental garden since they require intricate pruning techniques which help create a sense of harmony with nature. Finally, if you want to add some extra flair to your outdoor space then consider adding more ornamental items like water fountains or birdbaths that will draw attention from visitors as well as provide habitat for wildlife.
