High-Specification Modular Buildings for Cambridge
Adacon supplies the P300/P400/P600 modular range, a versatile building solution designed for durability and thermal efficiency. Unlike timber-framed summerhouses, our modules use a robust steel frame and high-density insulation, ensuring they function as a true extension of your home. Whether you are looking for a quiet workspace, a private gym, or a creative studio, our modules are delivered to your Cambridge address with internal finishes already complete.
Our buildings are manufactured in our dedicated facility and transported to your site. This off-site construction method minimises disruption to your household, avoiding the months of noise and waste associated with traditional brick-and-mortar builds. For those exploring the possibilities of a new outdoor space, our garden rooms provide a permanent, high-quality structure that adds both utility and value to your property.
Configurations and Use Cases
The P300/P400/P600 modular range is based on modules of approximately 13 m², which can be used individually or combined to create larger layouts. In Cambridge, where garden sizes vary significantly between Victorian terraces and newer developments, this flexibility is essential.
- Single Module (13 m²): Ideal for a generous home office or a compact hobby room. These fit well into smaller city gardens in areas like Romsey or Newnham.
- Two Modules (26 m²): Linked side-by-side or in an L-shape, this configuration suits a large home gym or a multi-user workspace.
- Four+ Modules (52 m²+): Suitable for detached annexes or substantial garden studios, these larger builds offer multiple internal rooms and can be configured over two storeys if required.
If you are planning a professional workspace specifically, you may wish to view our dedicated garden offices page for tailored layouts.
What is Included as Standard
Every Adacon building is delivered as a turnkey solution. We do not sell shells; we provide finished spaces. The following features are included in every P600 module:
- Structure: Fully insulated steel-framed walls, floor, and roof.
- Interior: Plastered and painted internal walls, laminate flooring, and integrated LED lighting.
- Electrics: Pre-installed sockets and a distribution board.
- Glazing: High-quality double-glazed uPVC windows and external doors.
- Exterior: Choice of cladding colours, which can be selected wall-by-wall to suit your garden's aesthetic.
We also offer optional upgrades, including air conditioning for year-round climate control, internal WC and shower compartments, and decking or terraces to integrate the building into your landscaping.
Indicative Prices in Cambridge
Pricing for a garden room in Cambridge typically ranges between £15,000 and £35,000. The final cost depends on the number of modules, the specific internal configuration, and any optional extras selected. This price excludes transport, which is quoted separately based on distance and site access. For an immediate, no-obligation estimate tailored to your design, you can use our configurator/p600 tool.
Delivery and Installation to the Area
Cambridge presents unique logistical considerations. Our modules are typically transported via the M11 or A14, reaching the city and surrounding villages like Girton, Histon, and Great Shelford via standard heavy goods vehicles.
Access is a critical factor. For properties with wide access, modules can be offloaded directly. However, in dense residential areas or narrow streets common in the city centre, a crane may be required to lift the modules over existing structures. During the site survey and quotation process, we assess these requirements. It is the customer's responsibility to provide a level, prepared base and to arrange final connections to the mains electricity and drainage. We can provide guidance on the specifications required for these groundworks.
Planning and Local Authority Context
When installing a garden room in Cambridge, you must consider local planning regulations. Many garden buildings fall under "permitted development," but rules vary significantly depending on the size of the building, its height, and your property's location (such as Conservation Areas or near listed buildings). We recommend contacting the Greater Cambridge Shared Planning service or your relevant local council to confirm if specific permissions are required for your project.
