An Alfresco Kitchens living area is a significant investment and will most certainly increase the value of your home.

Design Considerations:    

• Where is the best position for your outdoor Kitchen?

Carefully consider your available space, intended usage and other factors such as scenic views.

• Will you use the Outdoor Kitcehn predominately for small or large gatherings?

 Make sure your ktichen will be equipped with all the functions and appliances you will need for entertaining either small or large groups.

• What modules and operational features should you include?

Think about available space, desired functionality and budget

• What decor theme will fit best into your outdoor surroundings?

 Having a Kitchen that matches the theme of your backyard/outdoor area can have an astounding effect towards your backyards looks

• Will you have permanent water and electrical connections?

 Direct connections are not only convenient but provide a limitless supply of water and power

• Do you prefer Natural Gas or LP gas?

 Natural Gas, if available can be connected directly to your system and is both econimical and convenient.

• Do you want a standalone kitchen?

Inlcudes cooking / BBQ appliance, sink and refrigeration - no running back and forth to the inside Kitchen which means more convenience and time spent with guests.
