poison the fuck out the stump
I have a holly that needs to go (too near the house). I could use glyphosate but is there anything more interesting I can use?

SBK is probably the most effective poison available to the public, pour it neat into the biggest holes you can drill in the stump, several inches deep.
@fizzy.bleach: if you allow about 6" of concrete in the area of pad nearest to the tree that should be fine.

Leave the Holly in then, give it about 18" away from the shed. Don't just cut it down as it will grow back with multiple stems from the stump. If it has to go, poison the fuck out the stump.
