The Home Office Haven!

The BBC recently published an interesting article regarding the benefits of investing in a home office for your garden and how this has a positive effect on your mental wellbeing and property value!

Although we do tend to wince a little when customers call them ‘posh sheds’ (fully insulated timber frame buildings if you don’t mind lol ) we definitely agree that a garden building has become a must have item due to the national lockdowns.

The good news is that unlike the article suggests you don’t have to be a ‘Wealthy home worker’ to afford one of our garden offices with our SIP panel pods starting from £7500 and a timber frame office starting from £10,000 we can design the perfect space to fit your budget.

With millions of people now working from home we have found a home office has become one of our biggest requests. Our home offices are fully insulated, with double glazed windows and doors and finished internally to your desired specification. All our buildings are bespoke and designed to fit your exact business need, meaning even the smallest plot can create the ideal workspace.

Investing in a home office not only invests in your business but also your property value. We have known for a long time that a good quality garden building will add value to your property and just as the article states it can “double your original expenditure”.  

Another reason to invest in your own home office is the benefits it can have on your mental wellbeing. Creating a physical separation between home and work plays a major part in a healthy work life balance. Even the small commute to your garden can provide the distinction your mind needs to change to work mode.

The article points out that people who try and work from within the home have a “real blurred boundary” between the two and may struggle to stop working.  This is particularly important for families where children are likely to be at home for home schooling and the household need space for a multitude of activities.  

A separate working space provides a much healthier environment for the whole family and creates a happier home life all round.
