Description

This iconic New England design looks great in almost any setting—elegant, modern or rustic. The sleek and simple roof structure is not only attractive, but practical. The steep pitch in the front discourages too much snow build up, and the lesser sloping pitch in the back allows for rain snow and ice to be gently slide off to the rear, away from the doors. The absence of roof valleys helps ensure ice and snow don’t dam up during the winter.

A far cry from many “prefab sheds” on the market today. This design is made with, not only real wood, but 4×4” Hemlock post and beam framing. Hemlock is durable, local, sustainable, and strong. Relatively easy to work with when it’s green, the wood hardens as it dries giving these structures a solid sound frame. The doors are 2” thick with Whitcomb latch hardware you can put a pad lock on. Standard siding for this design is 1” thick pine board and batten. Upgrade to clapboard or shingle siding for an especially classic look.

Strengthen the framing even more by upgrading to pressure treated floor system upgrades (skids, joists, and/or decking), 16” on center floor joists, and/or 16” on center roof rafters. It can also be customized with a variety of upgrades including several siding and roofing options, local artisan hand-crafted glass roundels, flower boxes, and weathervanes. Termite shields and shed anchors may also be purchased for additional peace of mind.

Saltbox shed 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 or a corner garden office. If you live within our Northeast delivery area, consider purchasing a design fully assembled and delivered to your prepared site. 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.
