Garden Rooms, Home Offices & Studios

Garden Rooms

Working from a corner of the kitchen table? Need a proper home gym, studio, or guest space that doesn't mean living through months of building work? Modular Homes Limerick connects you with a professional local contractor for garden rooms across County Limerick — factory-built, fast to install, and built to actually hold heat through an Irish winter.

A garden room is a single, well-insulated room in your garden: an office, studio, gym, or games room. It's not a living space with its own kitchen or bathroom (that's a granny flat, our separate service) — it's extra usable space, built faster and usually for less than a house extension.

What's Included

Insulated structure. Proper wall, roof, and floor insulation, so the room genuinely works through an Irish winter, not just a few months of the year.

Electrics, sockets & lighting. Wired and fitted as standard, with heating included so the room is usable the day it's finished.

Glazing & finishes. Windows and doors sized to the room's use, timber or composite cladding, and an internal finish ready to work, train, or create in.

Fast, factory-built install. Built off-site and installed on your prepared base in days, not the months a traditional extension takes.

Do I Need Planning Permission?

Many garden rooms fall under Ireland's planning exemption thresholds, but the rules are specific about floor area, height, and how close the structure sits to your boundary. Your connected contractor can advise on what applies to your specific garden and intended use — see our FAQ for the general rules.

A Few Common Questions

Can I use a garden room as a home office all year round?

Yes, if it's properly insulated and heated, which every build through our network is. A poorly insulated garden building won't hold heat through an Irish winter, but a proper garden office will.

What's the difference between a garden room and a granny flat?

A garden room is a single room, usually without a kitchen or bathroom, built for office, studio, or gym use. A granny flat is a self-contained living space with its own kitchenette and bathroom. See Granny Flats if that's what you need instead.
