What is a two-sided conservatory?
A two-sided conservatory is a perfect solution for homeowners who want to extend their living space but already have an existing wall. Unlike the traditional three-sided conservatories, a two-sided conservatory is designed to attach directly to the structure of your home, creating a seamless transition between the indoor and outdoor areas. This style is ideal for properties like bungalows or homes with limited space, where using an existing wall can help save on costs while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of the house.
At ConservatoryLand, we specialise in made-to-measure two-sided conservatories that are fully customisable to fit your space and personal style. Whether you want a modern floor-to-ceiling glass look or something more traditional with a dwarf wall, we can tailor the design to suit your needs. Our bespoke conservatories offer the same high-quality materials and finish as our other products, providing a functional, light-filled extension to your home that you’ll enjoy year-round.

To give you a real-life example, our February 2019 Customer of the Month, Mr Jones from Hampshire, opted for a bespoke two-sided Lean-to conservatory that perfectly fit his bungalow. Read his story below.
February 2019 Customer of the Month: Two-sided Lean-to conservatory, Hampshire
Our customer of the month for February purchased a two-sided lean-to conservatory, which was designed bespoke for them, adding extra space to the rear of their bungalow.
The popular Lean-to style is distinctive because it appears to “lean” against your home, creating a sleek and simple extension. Like all of our conservatories, it can be custom-made to your exact specifications.
You can choose either a dwarf wall or full-height design, giving you complete flexibility to create the perfect extension for your needs.
In Mr Jones’s case, he wanted the conservatory to fit seamlessly beneath the low Soffit and Fascia of his bungalow. He also wanted to make use of the existing wall, which required a two-sided build instead of the typical three-sided structure.
As you can see from the photos, we achieved just that, and Mr Jones is delighted with the final result.
The specifications
As mentioned, Mr Jones chose the lean to conservatory style.
The dimensions were bespoke to his requirements, and as you will see from the CAD designs shared, the conservatory is rectangular in shape (3700mm x 2580mm) creating ample space to relax in.
| Name | Mr Phillip Jones |

The Jones family opted for a Dwarf-Wall which matched the brick colour of the property, helping the conservatory to flow from their home.
They also chose a 4-pane Bi-fold door, which further optimised the space available.
The sliding feature really helps to bring the outdoors in. We are confident they will be putting these to great use in the warmer months.
From this project alone, it is clear to see that our DIY conservatories really do come in all shapes and sizes.
This customer project is also the perfect example of how we work with our customers from start to finish to ensure you are fully satisfied with the end product.
The installation process
When it came to planning the extension, there were certain challenges which had to be overcome in order to ensure the build was to the customer’s requirements.
As noted earlier, the conservatory’s dimensions had to be carefully designed to accommodate the low Soffit and Fascia surrounding the property. This required precise, made-to-measure specifications.
To maximise space, the Jones family also requested that the conservatory fit perfectly against the existing wall of their bungalow.
As you can see from the shared images, we successfully addressed these challenges and delivered a high-quality, custom-built extension.
For the installation, the customer opted to use one of our Approved Installers. This is a popular choice for those seeking a quick and professional build.
So, if you are considering purchasing one of our conservatories, it’s definitely worth considering our network of conservatory installers. Approved by us, you can be confident that your conservatory will be built to a high standard.
Customer Testimonial
When the lean-to conservatory was finished, Mr Jones took the time to review the service received from us, and we were delighted to hear how pleased he was with the finished product.
He shared the following about his experience…
Initially I saw ConservatoryLand advertising in a national newspaper, so I gave them a call to get an idea of price. Overall, ConservatoryLand came across as a very professional company, and I could not fault them at any stage of the process up to delivery. We used an Approved Installer who was also very proficient. I am very pleased with the finished conservatory, meets all my expectations and amazed at the speed of installation.
