Uses for a Custom 12×20 Cabin

In what ways can you use a 12×20 cabin in NY? Most times cabins are used as vacation homes or places to stay during hunting season on your hunts. But let’s take a look at some other ways you can utilize a 12×20 cabin.

Home Office

Needing a place to do your work in peace? Maybe the house is too noisy or does not have the space to do your desk work from home. Consider turning a 12×20 cabin into a dedicated workspace. You would want electricity installed in your cabin, of course, for better lighting and for your work computer and other electronics you may need. Add decor to your home office and maybe even a coffee bar for your coffee requirements throughout the day. There are so many ways you could maximize the working space in your 12×20 prefab cabin.

Workshop

Do you enjoy working with your hands and repairing the lawn mower, doing carpenter work, or painting? Why not turn a 12×20 into your workshop? You can add extra windows and shelving into your cabin for better lighting, ventilation, and storage, and install electricity for your power tools. Decorate or personalize your workshop and enjoy fresh air on the attached porch of your 12×20 cabin.

Personal Getaway

Life can be rough, and sometimes you just need to get out of the house and have some space. Consider turning a 12×20 cabin into a personal retreat and create a place of solace where you can meditate and take some personal time for yourself. Truly make your cabin yours by adding extra windows, personal artwork or quotes, and decorating to match your style. Add a bookshelf for your favorite books, a drink bar where you can pour yourself a drink or make a latte, and maybe some rugs and couches for a comfortable little getaway.

There is no way to tell you the exact price of a 12×20 cabin in New York, but as a general rule, a basic prefab cabin this size will cost anywhere from $5,000-$10,000. A more customized cabin with higher-end materials and more features may cost over $10,000 and a cabin built with electricity, plumbing, and other amenities may cost over $20,000.

Siding and Roofing Materials

Are you looking for a specific type of siding for your cabin? Maybe you would like metal siding for a modern look, or wood siding for a charming feel.

Proper ventilation in a cabin is very important and prevents things like rot, deterioration, and mildew in your building. Sheds by Fisher builds their outdoor cabins with features that help to keep your cabin well-ventilated, like pressure-treated flooring that allows airflow under the floor of the cabin. They also offer various vent options, like ridge vents, louver vents, and cupola vents that offer ventilation as well as better lighting.
