Description

The 16 x 4 Lela Pent Summerhouse with side shed is a modern wooden garden building. Its pent-roof design accentuates the roominess and brightness of the interior. Three elongated fixed windows and glazed double doors flood the space with sunlight. It makes it feel inviting and expansive. You can customise the design by choosing the placement of the side shed during its assembly.

The Shire Lela offers a spacious wooden retreat with multifunctional interiors, suitable for accommodating garden furniture sets — a perfect spot for outdoor entertainment. Its straight-cut shiplap timber wall cladding provides a contemporary finish and promotes efficient water runoff. Thanks to its flat-pack construction, the summerhouse is user-friendly, ensuring easy assembly.

A combination of the pent roof and broad double doors infuses a sense of openness in the interior. Three generous windows ensure a well-lit space. The doors can be fully opened for optimal ventilation on warmer days or closed for a cosy evening in the garden.

With its tongue and groove flooring, the summerhouse exudes an elegant finish while providing a robust foundation for furniture or other items. The integrated side shed offers everything you need in one wooden garden building. You can store tools and equipment efficiently, keeping your outdoor space neat and orderly.

Make the Most of Your Summerhouse:

The enchanting Shire Lela 16x4 Summerhouse, accompanied by its distinctive side shed, is a magnificent addition to any garden setting. Picture the wooden summerhouse transformed into a sophisticated outdoor tea lounge. Embellish it with a classic tea set and comfortable seating, immersing yourself in the aroma of surrounding blossoms. 

For the creatively inclined, this summerhouse can evolve into a tranquil artist's retreat. The abundance of natural illumination is a boon for painting or crafting. Introduce an easel, a collection of canvases, and a selection of art tools; you've got a peaceful, creative haven.

One of the standout features of the Shire Lela is its attached shed. Perfect for stowing garden equipment, seasonal decor, or even bicycles and outdoor playthings. What's more, the placement of the shed is customisable. Be it to the left or right, align it as per your garden's design and your liking. The intelligent design allows you to determine its position during assembly rather than pre-purchase, ensuring maximum adaptability.

About Your Order:

The Shire Lela Summerhouse is a British-made garden building made from sustainably sourced timber. You will get a low-carbon footprint summerhouse made from ethically sourced materials. The practical design makes it straightforward to assemble. It comes with a 10-year anti-rot guarantee and a 12-month manufacturer's warranty. 

Superior fixings, high-quality roof felt, and optional assembly from the manufacturer are included. The timber boards attach to a solid internal framing to make hard-wearing and sturdy panels. The Lela is flat-packed for easy handling and assembly.

Please note: Images may depict furnishings and accessories; these are for illustration purposes only and are not included with your order. 

Summerhouse Aftercare:

The summerhouse has timbers that have been dip-treated to protect them during transit. You must apply a preservative and waterproofing topcoat immediately after installation. Using the treatment after installation, followed by consistent annual treatment of the garden summerhouse, will maintain the high-quality finish and is a requirement of the 10-year anti-rot guarantee. A 1-year manufacturer's warranty is included as standard.

To treat the summerhouse, elbec recommends Protek wood treatment. Browse our Protek Royal Exterior Wood Finish Paint range to find the best paint colour to add your personalised finish.  In the options section, we’ve also included popular colours and a Wood Preserver+ for use underneath your colour choice.

Customer Reviews

By Paul Liderth on 13th December 2024

"Great Shed/Summerhouse, went together fairly easily, you must read the instructions, as it goes up in a certain way. It's withstood 2 storms so far, and everything inside is bone dry. It seems very well built, so it should last quite a few years if you look after it. Make sure everything is delivered. We where missing two perspsex pains, but customer services soon sorted this out and sent them straight away."
