Modern Shed Plans - 8X12, 10X12, 8X20 feet

This printable PDF plan guides you through building a modern shed with a covered outdoor storage area and customizable door options—front or side-facing, single or double. The plans include three sizes—8x12, 10x12, and 8x20 feet—with interchangeable elements that can be mixed to create a custom shed size. 

Designed for simplicity and affordability, the shed features polycarbonate windows, and full sheets of plywood siding, flooring, and roof sheathing to minimize waste and save time. Oversized doors make it easy to store large equipment.

SIZE: Enclosed areas are 96 sq ft, 120 sq ft, or 160 sq ft. Covered area on the right is 112 sq ft, provided by 8 ft of roof overhang. Doors are 7.5 feet tall. Interior height pitches from 8-9.5 ft.

COST: $3000-$4500 USD. Material choices and local pricing will vary the total build cost.

WHAT’S INCLUDED: Instantly available digital download includes printable PDF 65 page step-by-step instructions for all three sizes, double and single door options, as well as side door options. A materials list, a cut list, a digital album of 60 photos and illustrations 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.
