Garden Room Ardclough
Garden Room Ardclough: A-Rated 5m x 3.3m with Integrated Secret Shed
This bold, contemporary garden room in Ardclough, Co. Kildare pairs a striking black-clad exterior with warm cedar detailing to create a private, year-round retreat just steps from the back door. Measuring 5 x 3.3 metres (16.5 m² / ~178 sq ft), it delivers a generous home office, studio or family snug, with a clever twist: a fully integrated Secret Shed hidden seamlessly into the façade for garden storage without a separate outbuilding.
Whether you are working from home in Ardclough, need a quiet studio space, or simply want to reclaim the back of the house, this is an architectural-grade garden room in Kildare built to the same turnkey standard as every Garden Office Solutions project.
Design and Structure
The exterior makes a real statement. Vertical black timber cladding wraps the building for a modern, low-maintenance finish, offset by rich cedar/redwood accents at the corners, soffit and door reveals. Anthracite aluminium sliding doors flood the interior with natural light and open the room to the garden, while recessed downlights under the canopy add a warm, premium touch after dark.
A picture window on the gable draws in light and views, and the crisp flat-roof profile keeps the whole structure sleek and contemporary, perfectly suited to modern Kildare homes and new-build gardens.
The Secret Shed: Hidden Storage, Built In
The standout feature of this Ardclough build is the integrated Secret Shed. Rather than cluttering the garden with a separate shed, we built a concealed storage compartment directly into the garden room, finished in the same black cladding so it disappears into the façade. A discreet locking door gives you a dry, secure space for garden tools, bikes, mowers and seasonal kit, keeping the main room completely free for work or relaxation.
It is the ideal solution for smaller or tidy gardens where every square metre counts: two functions, one clean structure.
Turnkey Solution
As with all our cabins, delivery is fully turnkey. Electrics, insulation, flooring and painting are all included, and the room is ready to use the day we hand it over. You choose the interior palette and we finish it to a crisp, residential standard to suit how you live and work.
Rapid Construction
Our refined onsite process means the full build is typically completed in five working days, minimising disruption to your home and garden.
Durability & Efficiency
This Ardclough garden room achieves an A energy rating with high-performance insulation and glazing for low running costs and true year-round comfort. The roofing system carries a 50-year guarantee for long-term peace of mind.
Customisation
