Design Overview
Custom-manufactured to exact specifications, the Apex Holiday Cabin 4.0×13.0 provides 46.3m² of usable floor area across overall dimensions of 4.0m x 13.0m. Internal dimensions of 3.7m x 12.7m are enclosed by 70mm solid log walls rising to a sidewall height of 2535mm, with the apex (gable) roof reaching 3510mm at the ridge. The design incorporates 5 windows and 1 door, positioned to the client’s layout brief, with the apex (gable) roof spanning 63.4m² above 40x60mm floor bearers. No off-the-shelf components are used in this log cabin; every element is cut and machined to the project-specific measurements, delivering a truly bespoke result for the dealer and their end client.
Why This Configuration
The apex (gable) roof provides balanced aesthetics with symmetrical slopes meeting at a central ridge, creating a classic silhouette that integrates well with residential surroundings.
At 70mm, the wall thickness meets the thresholds commonly required for year-round habitable structures, supporting insulation upgrades and Building Regulations compliance where needed.
With 5 windows, the design prioritises abundant natural light, reducing daytime reliance on artificial lighting and creating a bright, inviting interior. The double-door entry creates a generous opening that accommodates furniture delivery, wheelchair access, and commercial foot traffic, adding versatility to the building’s potential use.
The deep 4.0m x 13.0m plan provides generous room depth, well-suited to open-plan living or configurations requiring clear span in the primary direction.
Materials & Construction
Constructed from 70mm solid log profiles milled from slow-grown Nordic spruce, each wall section is tongue-and-groove machined for a tight wind-proof fit. The natural thermal mass of solid timber moderates interior temperature swings, keeping the space cooler in summer and warmer in winter. The honest, textured finish of genuine log construction requires no interior cladding and appeals to buyers seeking authentic timber character.
The floor system comprises 40x60mm pressure-treated bearers supporting 28mm tongue-and-groove floorboards. This combination provides a rigid, level deck capable of handling furnishing loads, underfloor insulation, and finished flooring overlays as required by the end user.
The roof structure is carried on 5 purlins of 70x130mm section, covered with 19mm boards to form a total roof area of 63.4m². The deck is supplied ready for the dealer’s choice of final covering—EPDM rubber membrane, bitumen shingles, or standing-seam metal are popular options that Eurodita can advise on.
At 70mm, the wall profile is significantly thicker than the industry-standard 44mm used in most flat-pack garden buildings. This provides measurably better thermal insulation, acoustic separation, and structural rigidity — making the building suitable for year-round habitation without additional insulation in temperate climates.
All timber is sourced from FSC-managed Nordic forests and kiln-dried to 16–18% moisture content before machining, ensuring dimensional accuracy and resistance to biological degradation on arrival.
Customisation Options
Every parameter of this 46.3m² design is open to modification. Eurodita operates as a pure bespoke manufacturer: the project shown here is a starting point, not a fixed product.
External dimensions can be adjusted freely—the current 4.0m x 13.0m footprint is not a constraint. Wall thickness can move up or down from 70mm across the full range (28mm to 220mm), and the wall profile can switch between solid log, glulam, or double-wall insulated construction.
The apex (gable) roof shown here can be changed to any supported type (apex, pent, or hip), and the pitch adjusted to suit local planning or aesthetic preferences. Sidewall height, ridge height, and overhang dimensions are all variable.
Window and door positions, sizes, types, and quantities are fully configurable. Glazing can be specified as standard double-glazed (45mm) or living-type (68mm) profiles, with optional painted finishes and crossbar detailing.
Internal partitions, electrical pre-wiring channels, additional insulation packages, and bespoke floor plans are available on request. Eurodita’s engineering team works directly with dealer partners to resolve any design requirement.
Private-Label & White-Label Service
Eurodita offers full private-label manufacturing for this log cabin design. Every document, delivery note, and product label carries your brand — not ours. Your clients see your company name from quotation through to installation. This white-label service is available at no additional cost on all bespoke orders, making Eurodita the invisible manufacturer behind your timber building brand.
Ideal Use Cases
With 46.3m² of interior space, this design supports a broad range of applications: guest accommodation, Airbnb letting, granny annexe, home gym, or multi-room studio. The generous floor plate permits flexible partitioning to suit the end user’s needs, and dealers frequently position buildings of this scale as self-contained living spaces or income-generating rental units. The 4.0m x 13.0m footprint fits comfortably within most residential plots while providing enough room for a kitchenette, bathroom pod, or separate sleeping area.
The wide double-door entry further extends commercial potential, accommodating retail displays, workshop equipment, and accessible access in line with disability regulations.
The 70mm wall section supports insulation and services integration for fully habitable use throughout the year, meeting the expectations of buyers who require a permanent, all-season structure.
The generous glazing allowance makes the interior particularly appealing for studio, retail, and hospitality applications where natural light is a selling point.
