I don't think I would do a shed, it seems like getting water and electricity out to it would be a huge pain, and I'd rather just have my little carriage house. If you are worried about resale, it could be dubbed a guest house, mother in law suite, artist studio, etc. I would even go as far as to cover the walkway to get there, and it would absolutely have to have a wood burning fireplace.
