Cape Cod Shed
The Cape Cod shed borrows from the classic New England house: a steep roof, a front dormer, shutters, and window boxes. It is built to look like a small building in its own right.
Concept DesignThe dormer brings light into the upper part of the shed and gives the roofline a lot of character. Many shoppers choose this style for a garden or potting shed that sits near a patio or flower beds.
Under the looks, it is still practical storage, with room for double doors wide enough for a mower or wheelbarrow.
