Modern Lean-To Greenhouse — More Growing Space, Smaller Footprint
This lean-to style greenhouse is fully freestanding, with a single-slope roof that rises from a lower back wall to a taller front. Its slim profile fits side yards, patios and smaller backyards, and it looks right at home set next to your house, garage or barn, keeping your plants a few steps from the door. It pairs clear twin-wall polycarbonate panels with a pressure-treated wood frame, beaded wainscoting and a pent roof over the door for a clean, modern look.
Full Assembly Included · Estimated Delivery Included · Not a Kit · 15 Sizes · Custom Finishes · Financing Available
Full assembly is included — this is not a kit. Our Amish builder teams build your greenhouse completely in their shop, deliver it, and set it on your prepared site ready to use. No crates of parts, no installer to hire, no weekends lost to assembly. Estimated delivery is included in the price. Additional freight often applies depending on your location, and we'll confirm any freight charges with you before we process your order. You can also request a freight quote anytime with the freight quote form further down this page, or call or text 732-806-7959.
Every Lean-To includes a storm door with a screened window, a potting bench (two on 10' and 12' wide models) and an exhaust fan with thermostat. All 15 sizes, from 6' x 8' to 12' x 28', are priced right here with optional electrical, grow lights and rain-barrel watering — see the Sizes, Options & Finishes tab.

FAQ
What is a lean-to greenhouse?
A greenhouse with a single-slope roof, taller in front and lower in back. Ours is freestanding with its own back wall, so it can go in the open or right beside a house, garage or barn.
Is assembly included?
Yes. Full assembly is included — it's built before it ships and set on your prepared foundation at delivery. There's nothing to put together and no separate installer to pay.
Is delivery included?
Estimated delivery is included in the price. Additional freight often applies depending on your location, and we'll confirm any freight charges with you before we process your order. You can also request a freight quote anytime with the freight quote form further down this page, or call or text 732-806-7959.
Can I put it next to my house?
Yes. It's freestanding, so it can sit beside your house, garage or barn as long as there's access for delivery. Text us a photo of the spot with rough measurements and we'll confirm the right size and placement. A south- or southeast-facing spot gets the most winter sun.
What sizes are available?
15 sizes from 6' x 8' up to 12' x 28', all priced on this page. Custom sizes are available on request.
Can you add watering, grow lights or plumbing?
Yes. Watering and lighting systems are available on every prebuilt greenhouse, and lighting, electric and plumbing can all be included.
Can I use it year-round?
Yes — twin-wall polycarbonate insulates better than single-layer panels, and grow lights extend short winter days.
What foundation does it need?
A level, well-drained base — crushed stone or a concrete pad. We can help coordinate site prep before delivery.
Do I need a permit?
Requirements vary by town, so check with your local building department before you order.
