Is the Little Cottage Co. 8x12 Colonial Gable Greenhouse the right size for your garden?
Size: 8x1296 sq ftLead time: 4-6 weeksTransit: 2-9 days from OhioPanelized kitLP SmartSide siding & trim
The Little Cottage Co. 8x12 Colonial Gable Greenhouse gives home gardeners 96 square feet of growing space in a longer 8-foot-wide layout. It is a good fit for shoppers who like the narrower width of the 8x8 but want more room for plant benches, seed trays, and seasonal garden supplies.
This 8x12 panelized greenhouse kit includes LP SmartSide siding and trim, a corrugated polycarbonate roof, tempered-glass windows with screens, transom windows, a Colonial Dutch door, interior wooden shelving on three sides, hanging basket rods, hardware, and an assembly manual. The siding and trim arrive primed and ready to paint, so you can finish the greenhouse to match the rest of your outdoor space.
Why Choose the 8x12 Colonial Gable Greenhouse?
More length without moving to a 10-foot width: The 8x12 footprint gives you 96 square feet of usable space, making it easier to add growing benches or keep supplies organized while still using a narrower greenhouse width.
A practical step up from the 8x8: This size gives shoppers more working room than the compact 8x8 while staying easier to place along a garden edge, fence line, or tighter backyard layout than the wider 10-foot models.
Light and airflow from size-specific windows: The 8x12 model includes 33 tempered-glass windows with screens and 16 tempered-glass transom windows, giving the longer greenhouse more window coverage than the smallest size.
Useful for separate growing zones: The added length helps you separate seed starting, potted plants, tools, and seasonal storage so the greenhouse can support more than one gardening task at a time.
Panelized design for more manageable assembly: The greenhouse ships in large panelized sections, with hardware and an instruction manual included, helping reduce assembly time compared with building the structure from raw materials.

This 8x12 greenhouse should be installed on an exact-size 8 ft x 12 ft floor, frame, footer, or slab. Roof overhang extends beyond the base, so plan extra clearance around the greenhouse location.

Delivery and Offloading
This 8x12 greenhouse kit is delivered by freight truck. The customer is responsible for offloading the shipment at delivery. Plan to have either a forklift available or 2-3 people on site to unload the pallet piece by piece.
FedEx will schedule the delivery date and time. Individual pieces may weigh from about 1 lb to 100 lbs, so many customers arrange help from friends, neighbors, family, or hired assistance.
The 8x12 Colonial Gable Greenhouse should be installed on a substantial exact-size floor, frame, footer, or slab. The walls need a solid structure to attach to and should not be assembled directly on gravel.
Optional floor kit: The optional floor kit includes treated 2x4 floor joists spaced 16 in on center, 5/8 in CDX plywood flooring material, and treated 4x4 runners. The floor size should match the 8 ft x 12 ft base size exactly.
If you are not purchasing a floor kit, you can build your own floor or prepare a cement or concrete slab. The slab should be exactly the same size as the greenhouse base. If the slab is larger, the 3 in skirt below the bottom plate may need to be trimmed.

Don't Take Our Word For it! Here's What Our Customers Think:
Hats off to Homestead Supplier for superior customer service - these guys go above and beyond to answer all my questions. We purchased the Beach House shed for some extra storage but ended up using it as a backyard playhouse for the kids :). Now we have to buy another shed lol... The shed is great, sturdy, and would recommend to others.
- Sam B.
I found the buying experience to be far better than expected. Very easy to order, received immediate order confirmation, excellent customer service, order showed earlier than expected and in excellent condition. Would definitely recommend
- Dean G.
After 7 months of waiting for our pool to be completed, we are thrilled to have gotten our new shed built. It perfectly completes our backyard renovation. We love it! The instructions were clear, and the building is sturdy. We’ve had a number of inquiries about who we bought our shed kit from.
