Virginia's Trusted Shed Dealer

Custom Playhouses in Wyndham, Virginia

Across Wyndham, you’ll find a typical Virginia mix of housing types. What most of them share: kids who need their own outdoor space. Evergreen Sheds delivers Amish-built custom playhouses to Wyndham and the Central Virginia area. ASTM-compliant safety engineering, residential-grade materials, and structures that convert into a she-shed or home office when the kids outgrow them.

Why Wyndham Homeowners Choose Custom Playhouses

Climate. Wyndham sits in USDA Zone 7a, which means hot humid summers that destroy plastic playhouses and enough freeze-thaw cycles to split cheap cedar kits in three years. Piedmont clay (red clay subsoil) holds moisture against foundations and creates ideal conditions for mold and termites. Our pressure-treated pine framing, LP SmartSide siding with zinc-borate treatment, and architectural shingle roofs are built for exactly this climate. Every playhouse includes operable windows with screens and ridge vents for passive cooling — because an unventilated playhouse in Virginia sun hits 130°F inside.
Foundation prep on Piedmont clay (red clay subsoil) typically requires a properly graded gravel pad to prevent shifting and moisture problems.
Space. With small-town and rural properties, typically a third of an acre to two acres, most Wyndham families fit a 6×8 or 8×10 comfortably in the backyard. Tighter lots work well with a 4×6 ground-level cottage near the fence line. Larger properties can go 8×12 or 10×12 with a covered porch and loft without crowding the yard.
Permits. Virginia exempts structures under 256 sq ft from building permits — every playhouse we sell (4×6 through 10×12) falls well within this limit. Accessory structures under 256 square feet don’t need a building permit, but zoning approval is required for all structures. Setbacks are 10 feet on both sides and rear in residential districts, with lot coverage limits. For specifics on your lot, reach out to Henrico County Building Inspections ((804) 501-4360).
Accessory structures are limited to 15 feet in height, can’t go in the front yard, and must complement the primary structure.

15-20+ years with proper maintenance. Our structures use the same materials as our adult sheds — pressure-treated frames, LP SmartSide siding, and 30-year shingles.
