Ask HN: Any Recommendations for Office Shed?

1 pointrlawson3 comments

I am looking to get an approx 12x8 backyard shed to serve as my office. I have a large fence so looking for something that comes in sections and can have AC/electrical. Any recommendations?

Where are you located (i.e., what are the weather temps / storms like)? Windows? No windows? Approx budget? Any local zoning considerations? Why not DIY?

Upstate of SC (so AC is a must), prefer windows, up to 20k budget. Have to get approval from HOA. Spousal attention is directed to this project so no room to DIY and mess it up 3 times :)

No chance of temporarily taking the fence down? You might be able to use a camper for that price and just park it 'round back.

Mind you some of these are top quality and the price reflects that but worth looking for inspiration?

TBH DIY wouldn't be that hard. Long before the internet my father got books from the library and - sans the cement work / foundation - put an addition on the house. And yeah, a small 8 x 8 shed out back.

I'm confident YouTube could guide you. Just job out the electrical for safety's sake ;)
