I got a log cabin built, ran power into it. Have a freezer controlled by an stc to 2c and 5 taps on a Mexican pine bar I picked up from adverts. Have 2 stout taps pushed by nitro and the other 3 are co2. I use the gas splitters to serve from them all using the one bottle. I recommend using the imminent birth of a child to influence your missus on the larger purchases 🙆

Guessing you have quite a few children then!
Just the 3, bar, freezer and bulldog

Thanks for all replies.

Will defo be getting an extractor fan or at least some sort of vent.
Will be runnig water to it and getting a deep sink for cleaning and general shzzel.
Planing on having a grow room in there too for chilies. Yeah, just chilies.
tiled floor is a good idea but slippy when brewing?  Wood I guess is out?

Interested in what people think of the gear I'm getting and any other small stuff I'm missing.

If you have room and don't mind the expense, a serving fridge and a conditioning/carbonating fridge would be nice.
What taps are you serving from?

I have a tiled floor in my shed and would highly recommend it for brewing, easy to clean and durable.

You will need some sort of workbench, SS is good, and maybe a cooker hood for venting out the steam.

One or two fridges fitted with Inkbird/STC temp controllers and tube heaters would also be recommended.

Oh and plenty of storage/shelving for bottles, grain, fermenters, grain mill, etc., etc...

Leave room for a kegerator as a later project maybe.  ;)

Great thread - I'll be setting up my own one next year. Had a quick google and you could do a lot with one of these..

Am leaning towards doing something like this: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=99310
