Imagine summertime, and you’re with your friends and family, in the comfort of your garden grilling barbecue. Such a moment is priceless. There are lots of great ideas when it comes to building a terrific outdoor kitchen.

Find Design ideas

There are countless design ideas for an outdoor kitchen. One of the foremost places to find them is Pinterest. You can find numerous design ideas with just a few clicks of a button. If you don't have an account, register and then search for "Outdoor kitchen ideas" in the top search bar. You will find amazing designs that will blow your mind.

Choose the best Grills for you

When it comes to rills, there are so many options. But the type of grill to go for is determined by what you frequently cook. There are six major types of grills, and they include an open grill, covered grill, ceramic grills, rotisserie grills, smoker grill, and firepit grills. Before you make an option, consider what you will likely grill most, the output and mobility too.

You need appliances

When setting up your ultimate outdoor kitchen, you need some appliances like a pizza oven, grilling space, beverage center and many more.

Furnishing ideas

When it comes to furnishing ideas, there is a lot of great options that are available to you. Should you go for a table and chair set, or a bench with a stool? Consider the type of gatherings you want before making a choice. Another thing to consider is the color scheme for your outdoor kitchen.The aim is to choose a color palette that you won’t end up hating after a season. For your fabrics, choose a weather resistant material. Another thing to note is your appliance. How would you protect them from the harsh element? A weatherproof cover is always good to have or an outdoor shed to store appliances during lousy weather.

Have a budget before starting anything

You need to budget for an outdoor kitchen based on what is most important to you. Perhaps it could be investing in the setting like a patio or a deck. If you aren’t financially buoyant, consider buying what is needed one at a time. If you think you will move out anytime, then consider getting portable appliances that you can move.

An outdoor kitchen can become the central attraction for entertainment. If there is a pool nearby, what then are you waiting for to kick-start a party? Building an outdoor kitchen shouldn’t be a mountainous task. With great ideas and a well-planned budget, creating the kitchen of your dream becomes feasible. If you haven't taken a step to start building your outdoor kitchen, start now!

As a Real Estate professional, I specialize in helping my clients buy, rent or sell properties in Westchester County. I am passionate, dedicated and committed to my clients and my first priority is to provide them with first class service and guidance throughout the entire process. It has been said that I go above and beyond for my clients to get the deal closed! I have experience working with clients who have financed their purchases with either a conventional, VA or FHA loan and have a good understanding of how they work; no sale is too big or too small for me to take on. My family and I relocated to England for 2 ½ years, this was a wonderful experience but at the same time, it was overwhelming. I have first hand knowledge of the challenges as well as the positives in discovering a new community. I was born and raised in Scarsdale and once married, my husband and I decided to raise our two daughters here. Both of our daughters successfully graduated from the Scarsdale schools and are both married, living and working in Manhattan. After living in the same house for 30 years my husband and I took the leap, sold our home and bought and renovated a condo townhouse in another town. Once again we are discovering a new community and fully understand the highs and lows of selling a home we loved and buying and making a new home. I feel that my personal real estate experiences have made me more in tune with my client’s needs and therefore better able to help them navigate through the complex process. Please call me so that I can put my knowledge and experience to work for you.
