Wooden Houses Ireland – Rethinking Timber Spaces
When many people hear the phrase “wooden houses in Ireland”, they picture rustic cabins or holiday chalets. But today’s timber structures have come a long way. At Garden Office Solutions, we design and build A-rated, contemporary wooden buildings that serve as stylish offices, meeting rooms, studios, and more. These are designed for year-round use and built around your lifestyle.
Our latest project in Cabinteely showcases just how far the concept has evolved. Far from the old idea of a “log cabin”, it’s a sleek, modern space that combines functionality, comfort, and architectural design. The full installation was completed in just a few days.

More Than Just a Wooden House
Our buildings are timber-based, but they’re anything but basic. Each unit is built off-site using high-performance timber and insulated panels, then installed with minimal disruption. These are permanent structures, designed for everyday use.
Whether you need a garden office, private meeting space or creative studio, our wooden buildings offer:
- A-rated insulation for year-round comfort
- Double or triple glazing and secure access
- Contemporary cladding and modern finishes
- Fully wired interiors ready for work or leisure
They’re ideal for anyone needing more space without altering the main home or compromising on design or energy performance.
Case Study: Garden Office and Meeting Room in Cabinteely
We recently completed a stunning 6×4 metre garden office in Cabinteely, South Dublin. This multi-use building was designed as a professional space for remote work and meetings.
Key Features:
- Anthracite exterior with LED soffit lighting
- Floor-to-ceiling glass panels for maximum natural light
- Fully fitted interior with custom furniture and climate control
- Soundproofing for focused work and meetings
- Quick 5-day turnaround from arrival to completion
The client wanted a space that was separate from the home but didn’t feel like a downgrade. The result is a premium timber structure that performs and looks just right.
Why Choose Timber Over Brick?
Traditional wooden houses in Ireland were often seen as temporary or seasonal. Today’s modular timber builds are different. They meet modern expectations for insulation, durability, and design.
Advantages include:
- Faster construction, usually within 5 working days
- More sustainable building materials
- Flexible uses and modern layouts
- Minimal disruption compared to traditional builds
Built in Ireland for Irish Living
All of our structures are made with the Irish climate in mind. We use durable cladding, energy-efficient insulation, and breathable building layers that ensure comfort and longevity in any season.
We serve homeowners in Dublin, Wicklow and throughout Leinster, delivering timber builds that are tailored to your space, needs, and budget.
