Working from home has never been so popular and, to help you get away from any domestic distractions, Forest have introduced Xtend, an exceptional range of garden buildings recently featured by Alan Titchmarsh on ITV's Love Your Garden.
Specifically
designed to help you achieve the perfect work/life balance, the Xtend
range of garden cabins combines eye-catching good looks with energy efficiency, they
are simple to construct and very affordable without any compromise on
quality.
All
this is to be expected as Forest Garden are the UK's largest
manufacturer of timber garden products, and the new Xtend range is
aimed at anyone who is looking for a high quality hideaway where they
can separate work from home life.
Practical and versatile
Homes
are not designed for work and building an extension is costly, so
Xtend cabins allow you to make the most of your outdoor space, There
are six models to choose from, and their versatility and practical
design mean that they can be used for hobbies, as a studio or home
gym, an entertaining space, as well as an office.
This
flexibility was very adequately shown on 'Love Your Garden' where the
cabin was used to create a peaceful retreat for the owner to not only
recuperate from illness but write a book, a perfect haven providing
the quiet space needed to support her wellbeing and where she could
regain her work focus.
She
is quoted as saying, 'The garden room is my special space. It’s
part of the garden so I can open the doors and feel the sun on my
face and listen to the birds or, I can choose to shut myself away in
my warm and cosy cocoon. It’s a practical and stylish space and one
that inspires me to do well.'
Easy to assemble
Following
a step-by-step guide, construction is based on ready to be assembled
precision cut SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels), a innovative
building method used extensively in modern housing, and when finished
the cabins will offer a bright welcoming environment for any chosen
activity away from any interruptions but still near to your home and
family.
Warm
in the winter yet cool during the summer months, the insulated walls,
overhanging pent roof and floor, together with full length uPVC
double glazed windows that can be opened during hot weather, result
in low running costs with an EPC energy rating of B.
The
single or double doors are also double glazed, offer easy access and
have a 7 point multi-lock to ensure security. Only quality materials
are used throughout including 1.2mm EPDM
rubber that protects the roof, this won't crack, blister or rot, a
far better alternative to traditional but short lived roofing felt.
Suitable for any garden
The
cabin's external appearance is equally appealing with weather
resistant tongue & groove cladding made from kiln dried timber.
This is primed and ready to paint if you so wish but does not
necessarily need further treatment to retain its lovely natural
appearance.
Built
in the UK with a 15 year structural guarantee, the pleasing lines of
an Xtend cabin will blrnd successfully with both traditional or
contemporary gardens because the design is so good, and you can be
assured that only the best building materials have been employed to
create this fabulous range.
