I was looking for a Garden Office to avoid the huge cost of Garage conversion and found this at Costco. It has double glazed windows and doors, and will be installed. All you need is to have a base prepared for the office.

This Forest Garden Chiltern Log Cabin is an elegant structure with a light and spacious interior. Manufactured from high quality 34mm interlocking logs, it features four large double glazed windows, two of which are non-opening, plus two tilt and turn opening windows. The double glazed door has a mortice lock for security and peace of mind. The floor and roof are both constructed from 19 mm tongue and groove boards, with the roof covered in green felt shingles. This cabin is ideal as a home office, summerhouse or garden retreat.

I think you need planning permission if you want to use it as a bedroom. However, if you question is whether it is warm enough, i think with double glazing it should be pretty decent.
These seems more like a summer house. Good value, but wont be usable in winters.

Good deal but not very handy if you live around the south coast.

Agreed. I have decided to go ahead since getting a garage conversion is almost 15k. This is something I can take wherever I want or sell it when I move.

Thats a good idea for a business. Attaching a toilet, and renting it out for 500 quid a month in London. Trust me really good idea :P Obviously, you have to be wary of the council enforcement police :wink:

Rubbish! If you were trying to use it as a separate dwelling unit then yes ... But if it is to be used as part of original dwelling the 'use' would not need permission as your property already has C3 use. However it could still require planning permission due to size, previous extensions, position in relation to highway, whether in conservation area etc. Check out planning portal for advice.

Made of 19mm untreated pine. Good luck with that. :laughing:

A lick of creosote mixed with engine oil and it'll be fine.

Either that or use a proper timber like larch.
