Basebox - The Affordable Garden Room 

As the festive season fades, the new year begins, bringing with it new exciting opportunities for expansion.


The beginning of the year proves to be a popular time for people wanting to upsize after a busy holiday period. Whether that’s to add space for a gym or an office, it’s the time when homeowners are looking to the housing market for their space needs.


Last year, real estate property giants Rightmove reported, “busiest ever festive period for home-mover activity, with buyer demand up by 23% compared to the same period last year. However, with seasonal spending hitting homeowners hard, the price of upscaling is drastic. Research has shown the average price difference between a 2-bedroom- and 3-bedroom properties is a substantial £68,367.


Basebox by Green Retreats solves this costly problem by offering affordable garden rooms starting at £11,732. One Basebox customer hailed the affordable pod as “a great investment” after having their 4m x 3m garden room installed as a garden office & music room.

“What was appealing about the Basebox building was that it was available in the exact size we wanted and fell well within our budget, which meant we could add in upgrades to give it that wow factor. Having the wiggle room in our budget meant we weren’t just ticking boxes; we were creating a space that was uniquely ours, and we couldn’t be more happy with the results.”
