Shed Roof Plans

The classic rustic look of this simple shed roof house design plan is a preferred option because of its practicability. We offer this design as a frame only kit, a complete pre-cut kit, or fully assembled from our shop. We also offer to upgrade your pre-cut kit to a 3 or 4 season kit if you choose to make this into a year-round living space. This design makes for fantastic garden sheds, tool sheds, a goat barn, or choose to remove the metal roofing and add some clear poly roofing to transform it into a greenhouse cabin. Each of our kits comes with a set of detailed plans that are broken down with an overview of our material list, recommended foundation, an exploded view of the structure, and everything is color coded to accelerate your building experience. We sell our plans separately if you are not ready to purchase a kit and need a piece of mind to make sure you are ready to commit to this diy tiny home kit. Once it is complete you could design your own small home or backyard guest house! We sell just the plans for this shed in 3 sizes, 8×8, 8×20, and 10×12, but we have 17 sizes available of the prefab shed roof sold as a kit. The complete pre-cut kit comes complete with rough sawn pine double doors and a pressure treated ramp for easy entry. There are also 2 windows to add some light.  The shed roof storage shed has a roof pitched towards the back of the building so snow and rain build up will be very minimal, making it very easy to maintain. Jamaica Cottage Shop Inc has products that have been tested and thrived for years and years in the New England weather.  The metal roofing color is your choice, but our standard color is evergreen. This would also make a great camping lean to shelter if you wanted to leave the front open. Tech support is always here if you have any questions before, during, or after your build. Our step-by-step instructions make it easy for builders of any level and there is room for customizations of your own every step of the way.
