Description

This charming small wooden shed was designed as a simple four-season cottage to fit a modest budget. The Bunkie Cabin is designed with aesthetic and space saving exposed Post & Beam framing. This small wooden shed includes fiberglass and foam foil board insulation, a battery-operated CO/Smoke Detector and insulated millwork. A selection of optional add-ons can be included for additional comfort and style.

When dreaming about the small cottage lifestyle, you may imagine tranquil surroundings that bring back memories of a simpler way of life. A cozy country cottage with vintage charm may sound old-fashioned, but imagine quiet romantic evenings, sharing a wooden glider on the front porch, sipping a glass of wine and watching the sunset with that special someone. Cottages are adorable structures that simply emanate warmth and comfort, and although they’re small, they offer all the conveniences of a full-size house. They make a wonderful primary home but can also make charming guesthouses or backyard retreats. When the primary purpose of your small cottage is a vacation home, the intimate space is ideal for couples looking for peaceful weekend getaways or families seeking quality time and bonding. At Jamaica Cottage Shop, we think that a having a cabin in the backyard can be just as rewarding as having one in the backcountry. Home office or bunk house for guests? Maybe both? Turn your four-seasoned retreat into a combined guest house and workspace for hobbies such as pottery or jewelry making.

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 visiting guests, a corner garden office or a country retreat. If you live within our Northeast delivery area, consider purchasing a fully assembled turn-key design delivered to your prepared site.

At Jamaica Cottage Shop, we use rugged post and beam techniques that have been passed down through the centuries to construct sturdy and picturesque shelters, reminiscent of old New England. All our outdoor storage sheds, woodsheds, garden sheds, storage shed kits, cottages and utility enclosures are built of the finest Vermont lumber and handcrafted for long life and durability. New England weather can really put a wooden garden shed or cottage to the test, and Jamaica Cottage Shop’s products have proven to stand the test of time.
With a full line of custom Prefab Cabins that are offered fully assembled and shipped within the Northeast USA and Cabin Kits and Cabin Plans that can be Shipped Free of charge in the lower 48 states, we have an option to enhance the look and value of your property regardless of your location.
