Sheds with Porches

A Recipe for Contentment

Sheds with porches have a specific charm unlike other outdoor structures. Backyard sheds were traditionally constructed to store yard tools, lawn mowers, and pool equipment.

But now, outdoor storage sheds offer much more functionality and by simply adding a porch, the possibilities are endless!

Mary and I are delighted that backyard sheds no longer have to smell like wet grass or be cluttered with garden tools encrusted with dirt. Backyard sheds can easily become home offices, craft and hobby centers, pub hubs, music studios, and that sought-after "she shed" depicted on TV ads.

What a difference a porch makes! Our thanks to Liberty Sheds for allowing us to share their wonderful sheds with porches here.

Look at These Design Ideas for Sheds with Porches

Porches obviously take your shed up a notch. Whether you choose a center porch, side porch or wraparound porch, you will definitely add charm plus a great space for relaxing and being inspired.

Consider These Options in Your Shed Design

This quaint front porch design has a nice seating area.

Consider adding hanging baskets in addition to the planters and perhaps add a walkway or landing in front of the shed. If your shed porch will be exposed to the sun, consider roll-up shades to keep it cooler - allowing you to enjoy your outdoor time even more.

Here's the same front porch design but note the additional windows and double doors on the side making it easily accessible for lawn tools. The extra windows increase interior lighting during the day which is helpful especially if you're using your shed as a studio or workshop.

Imagine writing that novel, painting that masterpiece, crafting that necklace, or making picture frames in this delightful shed with a porch. Then relaxing on the front porch while your kids enjoy splashing in the pool. (The two of us might add a few more windows.)

Looking for a cabin retreat? This treated-lumber rustic style shed with a front porch can easily be used for a weekend get-away in the woods or in your backyard with an adjacent fire pit.

We like how the front porch is designed to make use of the space for seating. Perhaps you could even enjoy a small two-person porch swing here.


We Love Sheds with Side Porches Too

Side porches have a certain aesthetic appeal. Mary loves side porches! Even though sheds typically store equipment, they can also make us think of cottages, complete with cottage gardens, stone walk ways, and arbors.

We can imagine someone in this shed writing a children's book or gathering for tea. Or, it may be filled with lawn mowers, rakes, and post hole diggers. Either way, it is an appealing shed design with its gambrel style roof.

However your shed will be used, any of these would definitely be great in your backyard!

How About Sheds with Wraparound Porches?

This shed design is our absolute favorite. Wrap around porches not only give you more space but also look fantastic.


Quality Matters: Backyard Shed Construction

There are sheds and then there are sheds from LibertySheds.com

When selecting a shed, especially if you're looking beyond just storing lawn tools, make sure it is built to last and will meet your needs.

We recommend you use the graphic below for comparison purposes when considering your shed options. Factors such as truss roofs, high quality flooring, and attention to details in the construction process help ensure you are getting great value for the price.
