Pictures of Unique Sheds | Cool Shed Ideas to Bring to Your Backyard (2024)

With over 20 years in business, we have crafted thousands — if not tens of thousands! — of sheds. The vast majority of structures we build are in traditional styles meant for nothing more than watertight backyard storage. However, as a true custom shed builder, we’re able to craft truly unique sheds — with one-of-a-kind uses and looks.

At Glick Woodworks, we’re the team to trust for your new shed. Whether it’s one of our most popular models or a fully original design, you can rely on our extremely high-quality materials and our legendary Amish craftsmanship.

Cool Shed Ideas to Check Out

Some of these projects are storage sheds finished with a distinct stylistic look — whereas others are built for a totally different purpose. Check out these cool shed ideas to get inspired for your build:

Garden Shed with Porch

Exceptional storage with a welcoming sense of style. This unique shed features a sitting porch that comfortably seats two under the roof overhang. In addition to the porch, this shed features several unique decorative touches including a transom window, glass inlays in the doors, and extra windows for maximum natural light. This shed shows how it can serve as both a practical storage solution as well as an outdoor hang out.

Real Wooden Siding Shed

This cool shed idea showcases tried-and-true backyard storage with a one- of-a-kind exterior. Based on our classic A-frame model, this shed features a stained wooden exterior that looks like nothing else in the neighborhood. Combined with the cupola, this rustic look makes a true aesthetic impact in the homeowners’ backyard.

Custom Run-In Shed

While run-in sheds are one of our specialties when it comes to horse structures, this one has a different look and layout. This structure has an extra-large interior, ensuring it provides roomy accommodations for horses on pasture. The cream-colored siding pairs nicely with the blue-framed entrance for a unique visual appeal.

Lawn Porch Shed

Another shed design that pairs a porch with ample room for a truly interesting effect. Accessorized with extra windows on all sides, this long shed could be used for either a she-shed or a storage space. Not only is the porch a nice place to add a chair, but it also adds that wow-factor to this shed. This upgrade can make you enjoy your new shed much more than you ever expected to!

Building Garages, Pool Houses, & More

While sheds may be our signature item and cool shed ideas are the focus of this blog, that’s just the beginning of what Glick Woodworks can build for you! For homeowners who require a larger backyard building, our modular garages are a standout and cost-effective option. Not only will you have the room to store cars and trucks, but a garage is a great space for a home office or workshop. In addition to our custom garages, we also build pool houses and animal structures.

From our elaborate and unique sheds to our chicken coops, you can count on any piece that bears the Glick Woodworks name to be built to a superior standard. This starts with the material quality (which is good enough to be used in home construction) and concludes with the Amish craftsmen who hand build our structures.
