Victorian

The Victorian shed is a homage to late 19th century architecture, complete with the same finishing touches that are a standard feature of buildings of the period. From the unique roofline to the dormers and even an optional cupola on top, adds charm and curb appeal to your yard.

About the Victorian Shed

A steep roof and reverse gable dormer, typically over a double carriage door between a set of windows or a porch, make this shed truly unique. Inspired by the fairy tale architecture so common during the late 19th century, this shed offers charm to any backyard and whimsy to any garden.

Inside the shed, the dormer adds a degree of vertical headroom, which is why most choose to put it over the doors so that as you enter the structure it feels as if the shed is bigger than it actually is. Over a porch, the reverse dormer makes it feel less claustrophobic, which some may also find appealing.

The Victorian shed’s regal and stately appearance also make it a great option for a home office, workshop, or playhouse for the kids.

While optional, we highly recommend the addition of a cupola on top of your structure to complete the Victorian look. All of our sheds also include a variety of options and upgrades including siding, shingle, window, and shutters. Have fun with it and truly make your new Victorian shed stand out from the rest!

A five-year guarantee against manufacturer defects is also provided.
