Benefits Of Wooden Summerhouses
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.
How Can A Summerhouse Benefit Your Property?
They Increase The Property’s Value
A lot of people love properties with an added summerhouse, it is a very sought-after feature. Installing a summerhouse will increase your property value. It has been proven that wooden summerhouses make properties much more attractive on the market. Garden Buildings are a great addition if you are going to end up selling your property and can also be dont for a reasonable price, see our guide on How to build a Garden Room on a Budget.
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.
Summerhouses Are Extremely Versatile
Wooden summerhouses come in many forms, shapes, and sizes. You can choose the style you like best and what will look best in your garden. It goes without saying but there may be some restrictions in regard to the size of summerhouses that you want, it all depends on the size and shape of your garden. At Garden Buildings UK, we have a range of summerhouses that you can choose from. We have something that suits every garden.
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.
