Description

With a compact footprint and a contemporary look, the Harwood Log Cabin from Forest offers a great value way to add extra useable space to your home, especially if moving house or building a traditional extension are not viable options. With 28mm thick wall logs, the Harwood is a log cabin for all seasons, making it perfect for use as a home office.

At elbec, we are confident that our log cabins are the perfect way to make the most of your unused garden space and provide a wonderful spot to relax or work in comfort all year round.

Ways to Make the Most of Your Harwood Log Cabin

The Harwood is a fantastic purchase for anyone looking for a new space in which they can work from home or a place to escape to in their leisure time that is calm and tranquil. In the more natural surroundings of your garden, many find the log cabin atmosphere is ideal for getting away from it all or for focusing on tasks. As such, the Harwood is incredibly popular as a home office or a space for hobbies that require a little bit of extra quiet. Alternatively, it could provide a space for young children or teenagers to call their own, perhaps as a games room or somewhere separate from the home to practice an instrument while giving parents a break! With a log cabin, the possibilities are almost endless!

Why the Harwood Might Be For You

The Harwood is exceptionally popular with those looking for a more contemporary look in their garden building. The pent roof gives a modern touch to the traditional log cabin, and the wide-opening, ¾ glazed double doors add to the contemporary feel. This is glazed in toughened glass, which can be relied upon to remain clear for years to come, allowing in ample natural light to make the interior feel extra-spacious. The roof overhang to the front provides welcome shelter when stepping inside your cabin while also rounding off the modern good looks of the Harwood. Why not customise your cabin to really give it the exact look and feel you are after? Many manufacturers recommend that you use Protek paint, available from elbec in a wide variety of colours. By using Protek Royal Exterior, you can make the Harwood Log Cabin look exactly how you want it while adding important extra protection to the timber. Whether you favour a more traditional log cabin look, for which their range of ‘natural’ colours would be appropriate, or a more colourful, modern look, Protek have a colour to suit any taste.

Features and Upgrades

The Harwood includes 28mm machined, interlocking logs for the walls, which provide a nicely snug interior for year-round use. High-quality 19mm tongue and groove boards for the roof and floor are another sign of the Cabin’s quality. As standard, the Harwood has single glazed toughened glass in the double doors, a premium option compared plastic materials you may find on cheaper garden buildings. A rim lock and key is provided, allowing you to secure the cabin doors. Different felt roof options are also available. The standard option has a 24kg per 10m weight Polyester felted roof. The felt has a polyester fibre base layer that makes it much stronger and more tear resistant than non-polyester grades. With more than twice the tear resistance of conventional mineral felt, it has a life expectancy of up to 15 years when fitted correctly. The roof can be upgraded to include an additional black sand felt underlay, which adds even better insulation and longevity. The highest specification model has upgraded 34kg per 10m roofing felt, a premium option. We’re pleased to offer the option of booking our dedicated professionals who will assemble your log cabin quickly and correctly. However, you can choose to use the comprehensive instructions included with the log cabin and construct it yourself.
