Adding on to your home doesn’t have to mean putting a room (or rooms) out of commission for a few weeks or months. In fact, you can have an entirely new space without touching any part of your current home. Prefabricated sheds are a relatively easy way to add an office, fitness studio, guest house—the list goes on—to your property. Best of all, they can be fabricated off-site and delivered to you, and they're often small enough so you won’t need a permit to install one on your property.
You don’t have to break the bank in order to get a prefabricated shed. The prices start from just $5K, depending on the features you’re looking for and the size of the place. For smaller units that are between 50 and 80 square feet, you’ll be on the lower end of the pricing spectrum. But if you’re willing to pay more, you can get a host of features that mimic the look and feel of a full-sized home including a side deck, full insulation, and picture windows. This is a great option for guest homes that could even be turned into an Airbnb.

So, here’s one of our favorites: the Nomad tiny cabin.

The Eichler shed is inspired by a mid-century modern aesthetic. It is a 10 feet by 12 feet space that features a sliding door and window and comes fully insulated. There are other options available, including a skylight and French doors. The price for this unit starts at $27,000 and they currently serve the San Francisco Bay area.
Modern-Shed
Modern-Shed has three different sizes for their unit: Small 8X, Medium 10x, and Large 10x. They say that their typical uses are for a home office, art studio, or guest room, and they have a variety of options to make your shed custom-tailored to your liking.
Modern Kwik Room
The Kanga Kwik Room is made with DIYers in mind. They sell shell kits that come with everything you need to build your own stylish shed—from the pre-framed walls to the windows, doors, and roof. The kits start at $5,000 and go up to more than $18,000 (not including shipping or electrical hook-up). If you’re local to Texas, you have the option of the shed being installed on-site as well as installation add-ons.
