Harvester
This cottage with 8’ tall walls and a steep roof gives its inhabitants and abundance of room to stretch or store tall items. A small loft with ladder is the perfect alcove to store those bins of winter clothes and decorations that you wont need for months.
The Harvester is a tall classic gable design that makes the most of its square footage. This small wooden storage shed for sale really is more than meets the eye. The classic exterior is humble and aesthetically pleasing, but it gets better. Step inside and it opens into a generously tall, refreshing space made even more useful with a loft. The loft has a window and is perfectly sized to provide additional usable space while not compromising airflow or the grand feel of the tall ceilings. This design lends itself wonderfully to a backyard haven, hunting cabin, guest house, roadside stand, or workshop.
Storing precious lengthy kiln-dried lumber for your woodworking project in a shed has never been so easy thanks to these tall walls. The built-in workbench furthers the case that this the ultimate workshop.
Want to add a Porch? Then check out our Homesteader design which is the Harvester with a 6’ Porch integrated into the building.
This backyard cabin kit is now on display at the Vermont factory. Come take the tour and check it out!
Offered as frame only kits, complete pre-cut kits, 3- and 4-Season kits, or step-by-step plans nationwide, our outdoor post and beam cottage and tiny house solutions give you the extra room you need for convenient and orderly storage, additional living or sleeping space, or a corner garden office. Keep your lawn furniture, kids’ toys, and bicycles within easy reach in summer, yet safely tucked away during the winter. Maintain a stockpile of household supplies or a stash of non-perishable foods to cut down on shopping trips or create the perfectly quiet nook to read while enjoying a breeze through the windows.
Storage Shed, Playhouse, or Craft Studio? You decide. A large shed can also serve dual purposes, becoming a combined cabin storage shed and workspace for hobbies such as woodworking, pottery or jewelry making. Even a cozy cottage has plenty of room for a reading space alongside essential garden tools, buckets, and other accessories.
