Kelowna Real Estate Trends: The Outdoor Kitchen Revolution
Outdoor kitchens are one of the biggest trends in Kelowna real estate because of the convenience and quality they add to the Okanagan lifestyle.
When you barbecue at home, is it a solo mission? Do the rest of your family and guests socialize elsewhere while you slave away over the grill? You’re certainly not alone in this, but there’s a culinary revolution going on in the Kelowna real estate market these days that’s about to change all that.
Outdoor kitchens are quickly becoming a must-have addition for luxury homes. And really, why wouldn’t they be? Whether you’re in the Okanagan kicking back at your summer home, or you live in the valley year-round, enjoying the outdoors is what it’s all about. If you live on the lakefront, even better.
Just like everything else you do during summer in the Okanagan, mealtime is best enjoyed outside, and a well-positioned and sheltered outdoor kitchen will offer a cool place to relax with your guests over a flame-broiled feast.
Advancements in Outdoor Kitchen Appliances
Gone are the days when the only barbecue accessories you carried with you were tongs and a spatula. These days, there’s are countless add-ons that make the outdoor cooking experience a treat. In addition to a high-quality grill capable of searing and cooking the thickest ribeye steaks to perfection, imagine what it would be like to have these items at your disposal:
- Icemakers
- Cocktail bar
- Beer keg dispensers
- Heat lamps
- Sinks
- Warming drawers
