However, to get the sheds we had to move to regional SA.

So when the temperature is hovering around 0° and below or 40° and above the last place you want to be is in a big metal shed. Smile

Recently I have been pondering just how much it would cost to build an enclosed room in one of the sheds that I could heat and cool...

Why not insulate the shed itself ?

I did that with mine using Foilboard from Bunnings and its made all the difference. I had the ceiling insulated by the shed builder as it was being constructed but it shouldn't be too hard to add insulation to the ceiling after the fact.

See pic attached of my shed with the insulation nearly complete.

cheers
