Not free, but what I did is I built a 10x12 foot shed in my back yard and insulated it and put a mini split hvac unit on it. Simple drywall/vinyl plank floor. Detached office.

My company doesnt have a physical location at all. Every single employee, even the ceo, is Remote, in 5 tomezones. Our company is pure revenue and has $0 debt. Its byod (bring your own devices). The company only pays salaries/benefits, theres no rent, no leases, no debt.

We're basically a union of software developers that staff augment other companies remotely.

This is becoming more common.

What are you looking for in a space? If you just want a table, you could try coffee shops, but it would be rude not to buy something every hour or so. While the table itself is "free," someone is still paying rent, and they pay rent by you buying coffee.

If you want a table, access to a copier for occasional prints, and a space nobody would bother you for several hours, you could try the library.

If you want a table, access to a copier, a conference room, a place you can leave stuff overnight, and a break room, expect to pay. If someone has land to put something like that on, they're not letting the public use it for free. Nobody is sitting on an office they're going to just open the doors to.
