3 Reasons You Need an Outdoor Kitchen
Summer is just around the corner and we are ready to embrace the warmer weather!
Sitting out on your patio, enjoying your garden views, and watching the Texas sunset is not just a leisure activity; it's part of our Texas culture! KM BUILDERS is a native Texas company, so we know how important it is to have that perfect outdoor space to enjoy your backyard views and gather with your family and friends. We've designed outdoor living spaces in many shapes, sizes, and styles.
We've designed patios with pergolas, patios with screened-in porches, and large decks with plenty of outdoor dining and entertaining room. However, one of our most recent popular project requests has been for outdoor kitchens! Here are the top 3 reasons why outdoor kitchens have become so popular.
Extended Living Area - Building an outdoor kitchen expands your living space by creating a secondary living area outside! You can enclose your current deck or patio and create a covered area for your outdoor appliances or furniture. You can also expand your existing deck to create space for an outdoor kitchen, allowing you to have more design options for your kitchen layout. To ensure your outdoor kitchen has adequate lighting for cooking in the evenings, you can string bistro lights around your outdoor kitchen, incorporate recessed can lighting into your outdoor kitchen design, and add decorative light posts! If you want your outdoor kitchen to always have a cool breeze, you can add ceiling fans to your design as well. Now your backyard is enhanced for ideal entertaining and grilling!
Great for Entertaining - An outdoor kitchen is a great entertaining solution for your home! As you're designing your outdoor kitchen, you can create a space for outdoor lounge seating and an outdoor dining table. To enhance your outdoor lounge space, you can include an outdoor fire pit or fireplace into your design to create a relaxing atmosphere for your family and guests to enjoy all year round. Not only is an outdoor living area great for entertaining guests, but it also allows you to have an extra space in your home to enjoy time with your spouse and your children. You can create fun memories gathered around the grill, the fire pit, or sitting on your outdoor couch watching the sun go down.
Adds Value to Your Home - When you think about it, everyone eats, but not everyone swims. When guests visit your home, a handful of them may swim or relax in the pool. However, with an outdoor kitchen, all your guests can relax and enjoy the outdoor living space. Plus, you can use it all year round, and it doesn't require as much maintenance. If you're thinking of doing a remodel that will give your home higher resale value, an outdoor kitchen is a perfect solution. Not only will you be able to enjoy the benefits of an outdoor kitchen, but you will also see the return in your bank account if you ever decide to sell your home!
