Crafted with elegance and made from top-quality materials, the exquisite Forest Retreat 6×4 Shed in cream provides unparalleled luxury and unmatched versatility for individuals who appreciate spending time in the backyard. It is truly a very upscale shed! More than just a timber shed, this splendid garden structure is skillfully crafted in the UK, utilizing kiln-dried, finely-planed redwood timber planks, fixed on an exceptionally robust 45mm x 28mm PAR framework. With both aesthetic appeal and strength, the charming traditional featheredge look conceals an incredibly sturdy build, as each 10mm board overlaps the next by over 25mm, resulting in a wall thickness of 20mm in those specific areas. Backed by an impressive 15-year assurance, the timber is sustainably sourced, being both PEFC and FSC®-certified for responsible forest management. The shed is coated in an elegant, high-quality cream paint.

The foundation comprises premium 12mm connecting, finely-planed, pressure-treated tongue and groove planks. Supported by pressure-treated bearers, it offers complete protection against ground moisture, making it perfect for storing heavier items.

The roof is adorned with exquisite Grade 1 Canadian Red Cedar shingles, matching those used on upscale residential structures in Canada. As time passes, their rich hue transitions into a subtle silver while the natural oils guard against decay and pests, ensuring a lifespan exceeding 30 years. The steeply angled roof design not only lends the garden building a distinctive character but also provides ample headroom for even the tallest gardeners.

Access to this premium garden shed is via a single door, lockable with a rim lock for securing valuable possessions. The cozy interior is ideal for relaxation, planting, DIY projects, or storage, with the option to conveniently add shelves over the upper frame rails. The 2 operational windows, featuring durable, elegant latches, offer abundant natural light and ventilation on warm days. These lovely windows can be set to open sideways or from the top and are crafted from 4mm toughened glass.

Measuring 2400mm x 1460mm x 1970mm, this beautiful 6×4 shed is also offered in grey or green, as well as an 8×5 size with the same remarkable specifications.

The Forest Retreat Shed will be transported and set up on-site by our team of skilled assemblers. Due to the substantial structure of this garden building, it’s crucial to have a level concrete base prepared beforehand.

Treatment Note: Forest Retreat Sheds have pressure-treated flooring and bearers, eliminating the need for additional treatments. The redwood cladding is safeguarded with Teknos Aquatop, a high-quality exterior paint. We recommend reapplying this paint every 6 years. With proper care, the cedar shingles on the roof are expected to last at least 30 years, extendable to 50 years with suitable maintenance using cedar cladding oil.

FAQs

The size of the shed depends on what you plan to store or use it for. Measure the items you plan to store and consider any additional space for moving around or future storage needs. Common sizes range from small (6×8 feet) for basic storage to large (12×24 feet) for workshops or extensive storage.
Sheds are typically made from wood, metal, or plastic. Wood is aesthetically pleasing and customizable but requires more maintenance. Metal sheds are durable and secure but can be prone to rust. Plastic sheds are low-maintenance and easy to assemble but may not be as sturdy as wood or metal.

Permit requirements vary by location. Check with your local building department or zoning office. Typically, small sheds (under 120 square feet) may not require a permit, but larger ones or those with electrical installations often do.

A solid foundation is crucial for stability and longevity. Options include concrete slabs, gravel bases, or wooden platforms. Choose a foundation based on your shed’s size, material, and the ground conditions of your site.
Look for sheds with features like weather-resistant materials, proper sealing, and robust construction. Ensure the shed has a good roof overhang, proper drainage, and secure locking mechanisms to protect against theft and weather damage.
Assembly time depends on the size and complexity of the shed. Small, simple sheds can be assembled in a few hours, while larger or more complex sheds may take a full day or more. Professional installation is also an option for those who prefer not to DIY.
Maintenance depends on the material. Wooden sheds need periodic painting or staining and checking for rot or pests. Metal sheds may need rust prevention treatments. Plastic sheds require minimal maintenance, typically just cleaning as needed.
Moving a shed is possible but can be challenging, especially for larger structures. It’s easier to move a smaller shed if it has a solid base. Consider the logistics and potential costs of moving before installation. If moving is likely, a portable shed might be a better option.
Many sheds come with detailed assembly instructions, making them suitable for DIY installation, especially smaller models. However, larger or more complex sheds may require professional installation to ensure they are properly and safely assembled. Assess your skill level, available tools, and the complexity of the shed before deciding.
