An Outdoor Living Space

For some people, a patio or a deck is just that thing built onto the back or front of a house.  But for most North Vancouver residents, these are vital outdoor living spaces where a majority of the daylight hours will be spent for at least 1/3 of the year.  Much of the year is not easily spent outdoors unless doing an activity, so when the weather turns North Shore patios and decks are where it’s all happening.

But what turns a back deck into a bona fide “living space”?  Sure, outdoor furniture helps.  But the outdoor area should flow naturally from your indoor living spaces like your kitchen and/or your living room.  The area should be large enough to have multiple sitting areas for hosting of guests, offer some privacy from neighbours and ideally also have some way of covering part of the space to protect from the sun and rain.  Going a step further sees gas, plumbing and electrical installed to turn the BBQ into a full-fledged secondary kitchen, with fire tables, heaters and lighting to extend use of the space into the cooler evenings.

In some situations, spending big on these spaces can provide a positive return on investment.  But not all buyers are going to appreciate the usefulness of this space. Let Curb Appeal advise you on what extent your budget for improvements should be spent on an outdoor living space.
