Need Backyard ideas

last month

Hello,

I have a backyard of about 780 sq ft and want to add a small outdoor kitchen with seating.

I’m debating between a small gazebo with a kitchen(detached) versus a kitchen under a pergola attached to the main house wall.

My goal is to maximize the use of this space for entertaining and gatherings, while keeping an option that does not block natural light into the house. I’d appreciate design ideas or recommendations. Thanks in advance

That's a tiny space. I would not put a gazebo in. You could so a pergola over the entire space, except for the cooking area. Plant it up, so it's beautiful. Are you planning to put in more than just a grill?

Do you need shade? You can always do an umbrella over the table.

I’ve lived in apartments smaller than 780 sq ft. I would hardly call that space tiny!

You have another thread about the ADU design that also visually and physically accesses (both Living Room and Bedroom) this backyard. So where the kitchenette, and how large it will be (grille, counter, cabinets, smoker, etc?), and whether the ADU is part of your family or renters might determine how you use this backyard and the layout of the entirety. As well, that information might even change the layout of the ADU, as the ADU is not a very optimal layout to begin with.
