Acorn Garden Houses is a premier bespoke building firm dedicated to crafting exclusive conservatories and unique outdoor living spaces. Our journey began over 25 years ago as part of the esteemed construction firm Acorn Country Homes, founded by Steve Magliano. Throughout our history of building and renovating luxury homes, we noticed a consistent desire from our clients: a need for beautiful, functional spaces that bridge the gap between the home and the outdoors.
To meet this demand, we founded Acorn Garden Houses, focusing our passion on creating high-end garden rooms and glass structures to exacting standards. Whether you are looking for a light-filled extension to your main residence or a standalone architectural statement, our conservatories are designed to provide stylish, year-round comfort. From sipping coffee by an open fire in the winter to entertaining guests in a sun-drenched garden room during the summer, we create spaces that allow you to truly live in your garden without sacrificing the luxury of your home.
An orangery or orangerie was a building in the grounds of fashionable residences from the 17th to the 19th centuries and given a classic architectural form. The orangery was similar to a greenhouse or conservatory. The name reflects the original use of the building as a place where citrus trees were often wintered in tubs. Some orangeries had solid roofs made of Cooper, Zinc or Ballast
