Hi!
How limited is your space? There are lots of alternatives to a large free-standing greenhouse ranging from cloches and cold frames to miniature greenhouses and Wall Gardens. It also depends on what you are wanting to grow and how much.
Take a look at our Should I buy a Greenhouse Guide:

It explores the different options available to those who are looking or thinking of buying a greenhouse.

Yes, a window-mounted greenhouse works well when you don’t have a backyard or large enough outdoor space. Build it on the south or east side of your house, extending outward by about 1-2 feet.
This should give you space for 3 shelves in a glass enclosure that replicates a mini greenhouse.
If you have an additional space of 7-12 feet, you can also build a lean-to greenhouse.
