Description

The 6 x 6 Forest Oakley Apex Summerhouse with Verandah is a traditional summerhouse with an appealing design. The apex roof and wide-opening double doors make the space feel bright and airy, so you will love spending your time inside. The classic look and compact design make this great for small gardens. The small covered verandah is an ideal spot for potted plants to add more charm to this lovely summerhouse.

A summerhouse is a superb addition to any outdoor space, and this compact summerhouse can be your private escape. The wooden summerhouse will fit a small table and chairs so you can entertain in your garden. The straight-cut timber wall cladding overlaps to help with water runoff, and the innovative design makes this easy to handle and put together. Forest sheds and summerhouses also use more timber to make them stronger.

The wide-opening doors make the space feel airy and create a relaxing atmosphere. The four long side windows let in so much light, and the wood is pressure-treated to give you years of enjoyment. The double doors are excellent for ventilation, so you can open up the garden summerhouse as the weather warms up. As the night draws in, you can close the doors to transform it into a cosy garden room for entertaining outdoors.

With the Forest Oakley, you get a high-quality 14mm pressure treated tongue and groove wooden floor, an excellent upgrade that makes the space feel more luxurious. It also makes the floor more robust, making it better for weight-bearing furniture or other items you place inside.

About Your Order:

The Oakley is a British-made summerhouse that features FSC® certified timber. Pressure-treated timbers are used throughout the summerhouse. The treatment gives you a 15-year guarantee against fungal damage and rot. The straightforward design makes it easy to assemble, and you get all the fixtures and fittings required for assembly.

The summerhouse includes hard-wearing fixings, high-quality roof felt, and easy-to-follow assembly instructions from the manufacturer. The pressure-treated, straight-cut overlapping boards are fixed to sturdy internal framing, giving the wooden summerhouse strong, weather-resistant panels.

Summerhouse Aftercare:

The summerhouse is made from pressure-treated timbers for excellent durability and many seasons of use. Pressure Treated products do not require annual re-treatment. These products have the anti-rot solution in the timber cells, giving them improved rot resistance. The treatment may leave a greenish tinge on the wood; this is normal and will grey over time. Forest Garden Pressure Treated products come with a 15-year Anti-Rot guarantee. If you want to add your own personal flourish of colour, the manufacturer advises you to make sure the treatment you choose is recommended for pressure-treated timber. What our manufacturer would recommend for even more longevity and extra protection, is to apply a water repellent product to your summerhouse.
