A backyard shed can be a valuable investment — especially when it has all the bells and whistles to enhance your home's curb appeal. If you have the outdoor space, turn a large shed into a storage area for bikes, equipment and seasonal items, build a workshop or create the cozy "she" shed of your dreams. Spring is the perfect time to buy a new shed, and right now, Costco is selling a large shed that's easy to build yourself. No saw required!
This 16' by 8'-foot wood structure has an angular roof and four transom windows, plus one side window. Not only do these features guarantee a modern aesthetic, but the tall ceilings and surge of natural light make the shed a functional place to work — whether you're in need of a potting shed, tool workshop or hobby area. The 64-inch wide double doors provide easy access for storing large items, like a lawn mower.
Inside, there's a 8-foot wide shelf for additional storage and a complete floor system, specifically 2" x 4" framing with 16" on-center joist spacing for stability. "The modern look with the sloped roof and big windows is a nice touch — feels more like a little studio than a typical shed," wrote one five-star reviewer.
The primed and treated wood is designed to keep dents, decay and termites at bay, and it can be painted any color of your choosing. Note: The paint and shingles are not included and will have to be purchased separately.
All supplies, including pre-cut wood, windows and vents, are delivered curbside within two to four weeks. Plus, Yardline provides instructions and how-to videos. Everything is ready for assembly, and you don't have to be an expert to tackle this project — although one reviewer recommends building it with at least three people as the walls are heavy.
