Outdoor Eating and Entertaining Area The new kitchen, bar and dining area is the main hub for outdoor entertaining. The outdoor kitchen includes two sinks, a refrigerator, a warming drawer and a professional-grade grill — plus a party-ready keg fridge and a built-in ice chest. The countertops are heat- and stain-resistant Dekton, a resilient engineered material made of glass, quartz and porcelain. The island with bar seating was designed for guests to hang out, sip a drink and watch the action. Another close up of the outdoor kitchen in also in this saved file
A Summerset 38-inch grill with a rotisserie and drop-in sear burner is the star of the outdoor kitchen, which has plenty of countertop space for prepping and serving. The door underneath was required by code for access to the gas line. Koehler recommends pairing the required door with a pair of drawers to store tools, serveware and other grilling supplies as he did here. To the right of the grill is a handy trash bin. Love the BBQ cook area with the drawers and a trash bin Included. Don't think we could incorporate the sitting bar
Wow outdoor living for sure....check out the TV screen
Like the faux shutters to give the impression of full-size windows
nice shade of charcoal but don't like the black trim...white would be more balanced. Interesting composite siding on 2nd floor gives a slate feel
like the colour combinations wight he pillows contrasting the royal blue sofa cover.
ooo I like the look and feel of this....maybe on the east end of the patio with privacy screen on SE edges...??
Backyard fireplace!!!

Original...and the x-large lanterns are lovely.
Image something like this on the SW corner of the rear patio

nine fire pit...could work up top!!
That couch has great potential
Nice colour combo...love the white furniture too
The way the privacy fence is suspended btw the low stone pillars
Lights on the suspended privacy screen
Use Mosquito Nets We usually only think of using mosquito nets to cover beds at night, but they can also be used to protect outdoor seating areas. Think of them as a flexible, inexpensive alternative to screens and use them where you need them. Keep in mind that if bug protection is the aim, all gaps — such as between the netting and ceiling, ground and posts — would need to be drawn closed, leaving nowhere for insects to get in.
Love this triple zone back area....especially the BBQ kitchen area
Fun idea
Outdoor kitchen is compact but looks efficient
Such an inviting environment
At the far end of the patio, a petite outdoor kitchen allows the owners to grill next to their outdoor eating area. Teak slats cover the base, tying in with the built-in banquette. The grill station has a waterfall-edge concrete countertop by Concrete Collaborative. Handmade cement tile from Ann Sacks forms a backsplash, framed by a teak cap. When Scirrotto was selecting the tile, he looked to the home’s interiors for inspiration. The homeowners “are big travelers,” with photos of Morocco and other far-flung destinations filling their home, he says. The tile nods to those locales, adding to the feeling of a vacation escape. LED strip lights above the backsplash give the kitchen area a warm glow at night.
Ohh
Pergola style is nice
BBQ Island
The metal privacy 'fences' with open spaces between
layout of different area...for the upper garden
Better view of the layout for the upper garden
so us
small retaining walls to echo larger one...YES
Upper level possibility
lovely calm functional look. I would have extended the pergola to over the entire dining table area depth, probably can't or it would need more supports.
2 separate structure, either side of patio door
helps for patio layout
idea for patio layout...though our patio looks nicer
