The Story

Masterfully balancing physical footprint with expansive interior utility, the OASIS is the trusted choice for Maine homeowners requiring dual workstations or a dedicated fitness room. Constructed with heavy-duty weatherproofing and engineered framing, it creates durable, year-round usable space that can support daily productivity and long-term property appeal.

The OASIS perfectly balances footprint and spaciousness. Our most popular model provides enough room for dual workstations or a dedicated fitness equipment layout.

What's Included

Every backyard studio includes the core systems and finish level needed for a true four-season building. This is not a basic shell or unfinished structure - it is a fully finished studio designed for long-term comfort, performance, and durability.

Delivery & Site Requirements

Delivery is quoted based on your location and site access. Final installation requires a site-ready foundation appropriate for the building and site conditions, such as concrete piers, helical piles, or a concrete slab.

Important Pricing Note

Base pricing covers the studio and standard included features. Site prep varies significantly by property - typically from around $3k for simple sites to $8k or more for complex ones. Other site-specific work occasionally applies and is quoted separately. We coordinate site prep with our trusted local contractors.
