Our Story

In 2021, after returning to Australia, Rhys Uhlich set out to build a home for his
family, only to discover he’d been priced out of the market. Seeking a smarter,
more cost-effective solution, he turned to the humble Australian shed and
traditional shed-framing systems. His resourceful approach to tackling the affordability challenge earned him a feature on the cover of Domain.

With a vision to transform the housing industry, Rhys was introduced to Katie
Penfold and Dave Penfold experienced property developers with over 35 years of combined expertise in property development, engineering, and construction.

The three went on to established Shed House Australia with a clear mission: to
disrupt the domestic home building market and remove barriers to home ownership.
