Good to know

  • The clear entrance is approx. 2.80 × 1.85 m — the 1.85 m height does not suit every SUV, van or roof-equipped vehicle; check your vehicle before enquiring.
  • Essential means fewer extras, not a lesser building: no windows, no gutters, no door opener, no insulation — you are not paying for them.

Planning and building regulations

At its highest point this building is about 2.60 m. In England, an outbuilding within 2 m of a boundary must be no taller than 2.5 m to count as permitted development, so to rely on permitted development it would need to stand more than 2 m from every boundary. Other conditions apply, and the rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
