Location: Roe Green, Worsley
Project Timeline: April-May 2024
Purpose: Garden bar and relaxation space
Size: 2.3m x 2.2m

Client Brief

The client approached us looking for some additional living space that would allow them to better enjoy their garden.

They wanted a cosy yet stylish garden room that would serve as their very own bar. This addition would create the perfect spot for relaxation and entertainment whilst maintaining a connection with the outdoor space – we couldn’t think of anything better! Just one of the benefits of installing a garden room.

Solution

With a full brief from the client, we designed a compact 2.3m x 2.2m garden pod to maximise functionality with a modest footprint. Careful planning of the layout meant that every little space was used effectively. The result was a surprisingly spacious feel inside.

The installation of 1.3m French doors created a large, welcoming entrance, letting in an abundance of natural light and unobstructed views of the garden when sat inside. The 300mm overhang added architectural interest to the exterior and a little weather protection for the entrance.

The idea was that this space could be used all-year round, so we made sure we installed good levels of insulation. Read more here on insulated vs non-insulated garden rooms.

Our team even worked closely with the landscaper to make sure the room matched up with the existing Indian stone flagging and planned pathway. This collaborative approach guaranteed that we could enhance rather than disrupt the overall garden design.

Key Features

• Compact 2.3m x 2.2m footprint
• 300mm overhang extending across the front elevation
• 1.3m French doors providing natural light and garden views
• Premium Durasid Foresta composite cladding in African Padauk finish
• Full electrical installation with lighting
• Comprehensive insulation for year-round enjoyment

Project Outcome

This completed garden room in Manchester has been transformed into ‘Freddy’s Bar’, affectionately named after Freddy the dog!

The result is a charming space providing the perfect spot for the clients to relax and entertain whilst enjoying their garden throughout the year with perhaps a drink or two along the way.

Despite its compact size, the garden bar delivers significant impact, demonstrating how even smaller garden rooms can have a dramatic impact when thoughtfully designed.
