Description

This premium wood garden shed is a mix of the two most popular shed models, which features four tall windows and a French double door. The functional side windows can be interchangeably installed towards the front or back of the shed, giving furniture placement and lighting flexibility. With just under 120 sq ft of floor area, this shed kit offers enough room for your hobbies, home office, or even a queen-size bedroom.

This shed requires roofing - any flat roof systems, metal roofing, rolled roofing, or PVC roofing are great options. Shingles are not suitable for a structure with a low slope flat roof.

Love my Studio! So much more than a “Shed”

Posted by Michael Hunter on 10th Apr 2024

Wow!!!! Exceptional company and product. Ordered and was delivered in 1 week! That’s not a typo…. Hardest part was prep work before hand. Kit arrived beautifully packaged. Would recommend you have a few friends handy for unloading pallet. I’m a 63 year old woman and after the joists and subflooring (subflooring not included) were down it almost build itself. Being a 63 year old woman I packed each piece out to poolside and in 4.5 hours had it assemble to over windows and doors single handed. Husband helped put in windows and door frame..and we completed the gable and roofing together on day 2. If you were starting from a new concrete pad this could have been up in a day. The Norwegian spruce is fragrant and absolutely love the finish on interior and exterior. Would definitely buy from Solid Build again! We had a mini split installed and it will let me use this “Studio” in Arizona year round. Love it!

We absolutely LOVE our shed!

Posted by Tina Najbjerg on 25th Feb 2024

We are extremely happy with our California shed. It was easy to put together and the instructions were 98% correct and easy to follow. Where instructions were lacking, common sense and logic saved the day. One small wall piece was missing but we had an extra long piece so it was easy to cut one to size. We live in California and the earth moves a lot, so we built our own gravel foundation for the shed as extra earthquake protection. We also added a thick rubber roof and painted it, and it survived the winter rain without a leak or crack. We are impressed with how sturdy the shed is. We were both moving about a lot on the roof when we added the rubber roofing, and it did not budge. Inside, the wood is beautiful and light and smells wonderfully. We love the light that comes through the French doors and the four tall windows and are glad that we chose this particular configuration (the California shed). We were going to use this shed for storage but love it so much that we instead are going to use it for reading and taking coffee breaks from gardening.

Sheds with finished interior

The inside of your shed is finished with smooth milled wood and smells like a fresh conifer forest. Due to the unique construction type, there is no exposed framing that needs drywall or other finish. You can move in immediately! Stain your shed interior for a splash of color or white-wash for a modern designer look. Turn it into a garden shed, home office, workshop, playhouse, art studio, or anything you can imagine.
Shed care and personalization

Your shed is made of natural wood! Easily personalize it and set up to fit your needs and style. Paint or stain the outside to protect the wood. Paint and polyurethane are wonderful options in harsher climates (think torrential rains, etc.), and exterior wood stain works well in gentler climates.

It's made of solid wood, thus you can modify it as needed to run conduits for electrical and insulate the roof and/or floor to make it energy efficient. It's incredibly versatile!
Easy to assemble DIY shed kit

All our models are designed as do-it-yourself shed kits with easy-to-follow manuals and step-by-step video instructions - it s not just easy but also a fun DIY project.
To begin, your shed needs a level and firm base for a foundation to stay upright for the years to come. Then, only basic tools are needed, and it takes a weekend to assemble a gorgeous natural wood shed kit. If you have any technical questions, folks at customer support are a phenomenal help!
Long lasting wood garden sheds

We use only FSC-certified Norway Spruce lumber, which is well-known for its durability and strength compared to Southern Pine. Buildings around Eastern Europe and Scandinavia made from this wood still stand 200 years later.
These tough little sheds withstand winds up to 75 mph and hold a foot of snow without any reinforcements. Since they are made of real wood, you can make needed modifications in harsher environments. Fun fact - our sheds are "self-adjusting" in some sense, and do well in small earthquakes!
You are in great hands

Our customer service, pre-sale and post-purchase, is exceptional, and our reviews prove it. You always communicate with genuine and friendly humans based in the US with expert know-how of the sheds and their construction.
Our family-owned mill is located in the heart of Lithuania, and has been operating since 1996, manufacturing beautifull sheds, cabins, pool houses and other storage and alternative living solutions for customers all around Europe and Scandinavia. In 2009 we introduced our quality sheds to the US where our customers continue to appreciate the superior craftsmanship and great design.
Nontocxic eco-friendly sheds

Our shed kits are made of 100% natural, FSC-certified wood and are not treated with toxic preservatives. Raw wood ensures a safe and eco-friendly environment for people and other living beings. Most shed makers use engineered wood materials that contain huge concentrations of formaldehyde and are toxic to you and the environment. These materials are not meant for our living spaces.
It takes approximately one mature tree to make a 10'x10' shed. To offset the impact, we give 25 times more to nature by planting 25 trees in your name for each purchase made.
