The cottage shed is our favorite and premium model here at Kauffman Structures. It continues the tradition of superior quality and function while giving extra attention to design features that make it an extra good-looking wood shed.
When we designed the cottage shed, our end goal was something more than just a storage shed. We focused in on things like a steeper roof pitch, larger overhangs, wider trim, and larger windows, all to give a look that sets it apart from the rest.
Check out photos of cottage wood sheds we have built and delivered to our customers. Each wood shed is designed and built specifically to our customer’s specifications. Brainstorm ideas as to how you want your wood shed to look.
What are the features of the Cottage Shed?
The Cottage Prefab Wood Shed comes standard with 5’ double doors on the side and an 18×36 window on each side of the door, letting in lots of natural light.
The steeper roof is more like that of many of your modern homes, helping it to blend well with your landscape, and avoiding looking like an ordinary storage utility shed. Larger overhangs and wider trims at the roofline make a nice design statement, allowing it to look more like your house, and not your neighbor’s barn.
An 18×36 window on each side of the 5′ double door comes standard on the Cottage Prefab Wood Shed. There are additional options for more windows and window sizes.
The many different features of the Cottage Wood Shed and the endless options you can add to it, make up an aesthetically appealing shed that is a perfect conversation starter with your neighbors.
Wow! So easy to work with & awesome product. Started looking at Tuff Shed, then luckily found Kauffman. Used on-line designer, created shed (they matched house color including “stripe”) plus added junction box & wiring for lights and wall outlets. While they were building it – I then had pad poured / electric ran – and they delivered & leveled it on pad. I was able to finish inside to fit my needs & now have a work place able to use year round! Thank you Curtis! (I was traveling throughout – so was able to accomplish with only a couple phone calls – Curtis took care of it all).

Couldn’t be happier!
I can’t be more happier with this whole process. Kauffman Structures has been wonderful working with to get a new (larger) shed for our place. They were done on schedule even though we still needed some time to prepare our area.
The Day of the delivery, it was really amazing to watch how they transported and set the shed. Very professional service! They have the right equipment for the job and it made short work to get it moved to the backyard and set.
Would absolutely use them to buy a new shed or even to move one.

We have been totally satisfied with our shed! We appreciated your feedback on how to build the foundation. We have had many comments from neighbors about how nice the shed looks. We have been totally happy with the quality of the building. The delivery of the shed went smoothly. We would highly recommend your business!

Best quality sheds!
The shed is the best quality, and the set up was excellent. We can’t be any more happy with the cattle shed and the storage shed you built for us. They have already survived some really tough weather with no problems. Thanks again.
Bill Brown
Excellent customer service!
We ordered a horse shed. The weather did not cooperate and Curtis did an amazing job getting the building where it needed to go. Excellent customer service. Product was competitively priced. Will absolutely recommend this business to anyone needing a similar type structure.

I recommend Kauffman Structures to everyone.
You were very easy to communicate with and business was a short drive away. There was a huge selection to look through on your lot and I think that’s extremely helpful on deciding what to get. You also had color samples and price charts.
Our first shed was easy to rent to own. We quickly filled it up and decided to go with the biggest size you offered. It made it easier to do that also because we were able to trade in our first one. The delivery and pick up was great too. Hassle free.
I recommend Kauffman Structures to everyone. I’m extremely happy with my purchase and extra space it has given me.

Perfect Combo – Great Quality and Great Service
We love our 12×16 shed. High quality, excellent workmanship, and it works perfect for our needs, storing gardening supplies while looking sharp in our backyard. Many of the neighbors have commented on how nice it looks.
Additionally, it has proven to be “derecho-proof”. While other sheds in the area were destroyed when 80-100 mph winds blasted through our town, the only impact to our shed was that it moved about a foot on the pad. We had no way to move it back, but Curtis was kind enough to come out and move it back into place and level it out after the gravel base was disrupted. Looks same as before. We greatly appreciated the service and would highly recommend Kaufmann to anyone buying a shed.

Loved everything about this experience!
We absolutely love our shed!!! Met our expectations and beyond. Such a great experience overall. Kurtis is outstanding to work with and made sure everything was perfect. We didn’t have things leveled as well as we should have and he jumped right in to help. We felt bad about that but he did not complain. And our shed is truly amazing. Couldn’t have asked for better quality and it looks great. You can tell Kauffman Structures cares about what they do!!!! Loved everything about this experience and would recommend them for sure!!! Thank you Kurtis!!
Susie Ruchotzke
Highly recommend this company!
I just received my new shed from Kauffman Structures . It is absolutely beautiful, and so well built. Curtis, the owner, was so easy to deal with; he actually brought it 200 miles to deliver it ( not free delivery). I wanted a shed that had an Amish/ Mennonite background on the builders as my friend had bought one previously and I knew the quality was first class . Curtis proved my instinct correct. I love this shed. If I can I’ll post a picture . Lastly, as you know building materials have skyrocketed but I didn’t feel that in this buy.
There were many build variations, to maneuver the cost. I highly recommend this company!

Would recommend!
Started looking for a shed online and am I glad I found Curtis & Kauffman Structures. The process of going through different options was easy & I wound up getting exactly what I had in mind. Curtis delivered the shed in a timely manner and installed the shed as if it was in his own yard. Making sure it was set & leveled perfectly in my yard. Thank you to Kauffman Structures, I would recommended them to anyone looking to a quality structure from really good people.

A perfect job
Curtis just left after delivering and installing my beautiful 10×12 shed. It is so beautiful I told him I wanted to wallpaper the inside instead of filling it with lawn stuff!! I was amazed watching the process to unload and stabilize the building. It was a perfect job. Thank you.

Alex Dunkin
My buying experience was top notch.
With my new Kauffman shed I’ve been able to regain the use of my garage. The Gable shed was a very practical shed that fit my needs well. I looked at a lot of other sheds and the shed from Kauffmans was just a very well built shed. My buying experience was top notch, just like a person would like it to be.
Bill Ogbourne
Will buy again!
I have a cabin and a shed. Both are great. I will buy again from Kauffman

A nice experience
We recently purchased a 10x16ft Carriage style storage shed from Kauffman Structures located in Weldon, IA. The quality and the craftsmanship of the unit purchased was excellent. The shed was delivered at the stated date and time and set into place in less than an hour. Curtis answered all of our questions before hand and was a pleasure to do business with. A nice experience this day and age where most just seem to want your money only.
Excellent quality!
Excellent quality and professionalism that is hard to find these days.

Ron Graham
Very Impressed
Curtis delivered my shed today. I bought this shed through the web site by looking at a picture of the outside. I had no idea what it looked like inside and only seen two sides of the outside. I was so impressed when I got to look at it in person. It was a used one and it looked like new inside and out. If you are looking for a good quality shed then contact Kauffman Structures. They have the best customer service and delivery. I give them a 5 star rating. Thanks Curtis for all your help.

Great service!
Great service, great loafer shed! Would definitely recommend and buy from again.
Ashley Mathern
Love my new shed!
Love my new shed. It looks like a little house rather than a typical shed. Curtis delivered the shed within the timeframe promised. He brought touch-up paint to fix anything that got dinged during transport. When he was done it was perfectly level. You can tell they pay attention to every little detail and build the best quality product.

Very Happy Customer
I have bought 2 sheds from Kauffman’s and I couldn’t be happier, The first shed was a storage shed for over flow from moving into a house with less storage. It is the best built shed I have been in. we are on our second year with it and there are no issues what so ever. The second shed was built to be a chicken coop with a little storage for gardening stuff on the back side. I can’t say enough about how great these folks are to work with, best of all, the take great pride in their products, which is something rare today. They will get my business and my referrals from here out. If you need a shed call them now.

Miranda Mohr Russell
Great Quality Custom Shed for Us
We are thrilled with our new shed. We needed a custom, well built shed for storage of household items. I am very impressed with the quality of this Kauffman Structure. And Curtis was able to place it within a fraction of an inch of where we needed it. Nice people to work with. I highly recommend them.
Wallace Shea
Great to work with!
Curtis and Kauffman Structures were great to work with! Their craftsmanship and customer service is second to none. Absolutely love our 12×16 Gable shed. Thanks guys.
Very happy with end product!
Curtis was great to work with from the beginning to the end of the project. He helped me get all the information needed for our HOA and building permit and was always available to answer all me questions. Curtis builds a quality shed and I’m very happy with the end product!
Galen Tolliver
Good quality is so hard to find these days.
Wanted to tell you how much we are enjoying our “little house.” I love to see it in the yard. It’s just beautiful. My brother is absolutely in love with it. I sure wish I could hire you to construct me an outdoor pre-release cage for my wildlife rehabilitation. If you’re for hire let me know. Good quality is so hard to find these days.
Tammy Woodworth
Good quality!
They build nice sheds and they are good quality
Christian Martin
Highly recommend!
We had our shed built by Kauffman Structures a few years ago. I just wanted to give an update and say we love our shed as much as we did when we first got it! It is very high quality and fits our needs perfectly! Curtis was a huge help in helping us with the design that would work best for our lot and our storage needs. We highly recommend them!
Shelly Braunschweig
Will recommend to anyone looking for a shed!
Researching sheds took a while until I dealt with Curtis and these folks. Great service, great communication, and an excellent end product. I could not be happy. Even the little things, zero damage to my yard while moving it in. Very well done. Will recommend to anyone looking for a shed.
Phil Kluetz

We really like our first shed from Kauffman Structures! It is still looking great. More recently we’ve been needing a tack shed for the horses, and have been shopping around but nothing compared to a Kauffman Structures shed. Thank you for a quality product.
Amazing customer service!
Amazing customer service! Everything is done in a timely manner!!!! They do a wonderful job!!! Will definitely tell others about them!!!!
