Greenhouse A-Frame Plans

These are printable PDF plans for a super simple, and affordable greenhouse A-frame and are exactly what you need to create your own greenhouse, potting shed, a playhouse, a cabin, or a backyard office. This design is based on our A-Frame cabin. If you're looking for a cabin with fewer clear roof panels, see our other listing.

Designed to be built in a couple weekends, this build is just under 120 square feet, meaning no permit is required in most areas. The plans prioritize efficiency and readily available materials and are beginner-friendly, with no roof panel cuts and minimal plywood trimming. 

Plans include details for various backyard foundations (gravel, paving stones, etc.), along with instructions for constructing in the trees if you’re feeling adventurous. Plus, there's room for a tiny wood stove on either side of the door.

SIZE: 118 sq ft. Footprint measures approximately 10x12 ft. Total height is 10.5 ft.

COST: $2500 USD. Material choices and local pricing will vary the total build cost.

WHAT’S INCLUDED: Instantly available digital download includes printable PDF 40 page step-by-step instructions, builder-ready blueprints, a materials list, a cut list, a digital album of 400 photos and videos of the build process, and a bonus 3D Sketchup model.

SKETCHUP: An entry-level 3D design program that allows you to take precise measurements and examine the hidden layers of construction details. Use it to modify the design, or to familiarize yourself with the construction process digitally before building for real. Sketchup is available as an always-free web app, so there is no added cost.

Feel free to download plans to price materials, share them with builders, or to explore modifications. If they don't end up fitting your project, we're happy to offer a refund anytime.
