The old proverb ‘necessity is the mother of invention’, applies perfectly to the home of John and Charlotte, who wanted some more space to entertain their friends and family so came up with the clever idea of converting their garden shed. ‘We needed some more space for entertaining and we could also see there was a rental market for our garden shed, so it seemed to make sense to do it up and use it for our friends and family and eventually rent it out,’ says Charlotte. ‘We both thought it was a great idea, the only problem being it had no bathroom, no kitchen and no heating, so there was actually quite a lot of work involved in converting it and making it comfortable’.
