With its durable construction and elegant design, this is a must-have that will provide hours upon hours of entertainment. Assembly? Piece of cake!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Delivery is curbside, and all delivery trucks are equipped with liftgates to unload your playhouse kit, except for the 10x12 size. For the 10x12 size, you will need to have 2 people available on the day of delivery to manually unload the pieces from the pallet. Each piece weighs between 1-100 lbs, making it fairly easy to unload. Thank you for your understanding and for choosing Homestead Supplier!

Your playhouse will be delivered in 2-9 days depending on the distance from our site in Ohio to your home.

The customer is responsible for purchasing shingles, paint, and drip edge, all of which are available at your local hardware store. This allows you to customize the Cape Cod Playhouse to the look you desire. A variety of other options can be purchased along with the kit to further enhance the beauty of your playhouse. There are two working screened windows that use tempered safety glass. Easy access for both children and adults; the adult door is on the side of the playhouse.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • How long does shipping take

    The current lead time as of July 14 is 11 to 12 weeks. It will take 2 to 7 days to ship depending on how far you are from Ohio.

  • How much does the 10x12 weigh?

    The base kit weighs 1554 lbs.

  • If you wanted to add finished flooring (wood, vinyl, linoleum, etc) above the plywood floor kit, how does that affect the build (ie the door opening/threshold)? Thanks!

    It should not affect any of the building itself, as long as it does not go under the bottom plates, if its against, that's fine. Depending on the thickness, it should not affect the door, if you are concerned, you can measure the space you have under the door compared to the thickness of your finished floor.

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.
