Detailed Specification

Please note: all imperial measurements are approximate and Forest garden buildings are made from metric measurements. Footprint does not include the roof overhang.

Description

The Oakley 8x6 Summerhouse from Forest is packed full of fantastic features, such as the ¾ length windows, glazed double doors and full length side windows so the interior is really flooded with light. The larger size makes it the perfect place to retreat and do some work, enjoy a hobby or even somewhere to entertain guests.

Manufactured using traditional overlap board construction to encourage rainwater run-off, while a high quality mineral-felted roof ensures the building is well protected from the weather. The solid timber boarded floor is stronger than normal OSB sheet flooring, offering better weight-bearing capabilities for things such as furniture.

The timber used for these summerhouses has been Pressure Treated to give a 15 year guarantee against rot and fungal damage.

The windows are glazed with shatter-resistant acrylic, which is lightweight and a much safer alternative to glass. The smooth-planed scalloped barge boards and decorative finial finish this summerhouse house off beautifully.

The Oakley Summerhouse is also available in the following sizes: 7x5 and 7x7
