If you need some extra space outside of the house, why not consider buying a garden shed? They are a simple and easy way to add a bit of extra value to your backyard. If you thought they were just for tools, garden sheds can be used for much more.
Here are 10 different uses for garden sheds:
1. Workshops
Need a workshop in your yard but don’t quite have space? A garden shed will still offer lots of space without taking over the whole garden. Workshops will allow you to store tools, books, and whatever you need to complete those DIY projects.
2. An Art Studio
Artists often need some privacy when creating their masterpieces. You don’t want to leave your artwork lying around the house, where it can potentially be ruined. Garden sheds can easily be transformed into art studios. There’s enough space to complete all your art projects, whether painting, photographing or sculpting.
3. A Greenhouse
You can turn your backyard shed into a fully functional greenhouse with the right materials. You’ll just need to ensure your shed has a transparent roof so the plants get enough sun. Once that’s taken care of, all you have to do is fill the room with plants. You can even go the extra step and introduce temperature control to ensure the plants in your greenhouse grow to their full potential.
4. Entertainment Space
Maybe your kids are a few teenagers who can’t wait to get out of the house and need their own space. To give them a bit more independence, turn the backyard shed into an entertainment space. Simply get a couch, chairs or bean bags, a television and some speakers, and you’ll be set. You could even turn it into a game room by adding a pool or ping-pong table. This is the perfect space to hang out with friends.
5. Home Office
If you’re starting your own business or you work from home, you can have your own space by transforming the backyard shed. Many businesses have started out of garden sheds. This gives you your own space to completely focus on work without the distractions you may face within the house. Without a television or other family members, you’ll be able to completely concentrate and get to work in your private office without even leaving the property.
6. Home Gym
Gyms can often be expensive or aren’t accessible. Avoid paying those membership fees and build your own gym within your backyard shed. You can customise it to have the equipment you need – whether you enjoy cardio and need a treadmill, weightlifting machines or a punching bag. A large garden shed will be able to cater for your needs. You’ll be able to remain fit and healthy without needing to travel anywhere.
7. Children’s Playhouse
Sometimes, young children need their own space too. Why not turn your backyard shed into a children’s playhouse? Help boost their imagination by turning the shed into a real-life dollhouse. Decorate the shed with their favourite toys and paint the inside their favourite colour. This means your children can leave the house to play even when the weather isn’t good. Your children will be sure to be entertained for hours right in their backyard.
8. Pool House
You can customise your garden shed into a pool house for those with a pool. Collect some towels, snacks, drinks, hats and sunscreen, and you’ll have a complete pool house. This will be perfect for entertaining friends and family during summer.
9. Meditation space
Maybe yoga is more your thing – simply spread out a yoga mat, light a few candles, and you’ve got a meditation space. You’ll get some much-needed relaxation time without having to pay to go to a yoga studio.
10. An outdoor pub

Why not turn the shed into a mini outdoor pub if you want to entertain your guests? Simply insert a bar counter and some stools, and stock up a mini fridge with drinks, and you’ll have an entertainment area within your backyard.
