LIGHT it

UP!

Outdoor living space gives cozy warmth all year long.

W

ith cool summer nights quickly approaching, sitting by a fire provides welcome warmth during our season of cold winds and rain. On cool summer nights, you can melt marshmallows and nibble s’mores while you lounge in an Adirondack chair, feet propped up on the rock ledge. A fireplace or firepit in an outdoor living space allows you to enjoy the outdoors all year long, or at least most of it, and a little planning can ensure you get the most of your space and still fit within your budget.


FINDING OREGON HOMES | WWW.FINDINGOREGONHOMES.COM | Vol 7, #7 September 2014  11

You built your patio to extend your living space beyond the walls of your home. You created an enticing outdoor room or two with furniture cozy enough to suit your living room but durable enough to withstand the elements. Maybe you’re constructing an outdoor kitchen that goes beyond a simple charcoal grill.

appeal of a built-in fireplace or fire pit, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be elegant in their own right. You can get them in industrial-style metal, mesh, stone or even polished copper for a look that suits you. Some higherend fire pit models are powered by a natural gas source, but most use wood for fuel.

With the brisk evenings just around the corner in our region, more and more homeowners are turning an eye to their outdoor living spaces. Incorporating kitchens, entertainment centers, and comfortable seating areas all encourage getting the most of our late summer and fall weather before winter hits us full force. Local mason, Brian Millett of Brian Millett Masonry says “Our outdoor kitchens that are built on-site can be as large as you want them to be and can incorporate any feature you want or can imagine. Some ideas for you are fireplaces, benches, entertainment centers etc. We can even build a roof or gazebo over the entire kitchen.”

Bonus: the convenience factor. The ability to move the unit easily means it’ll be less of a hassle to clean, with the added bonus of being able to experiment freely with your backyard’s feng shui.

“A permanent kitchen is built out of block and will incorporate all the fixtures you choose. Spaces for refrigerators, storage, sinks, blenders, outlets and anything else you want. It is really only limited to your imagination and budget.” Millett says. Weather you decide on a small patio space with a firepit or a massive outdoor kitchen gallery that backyard dreams are made of, an outdoor fire adds a festive feel to any outdoor space. After all, what better way to get the most of our unique Southern Oregon weather than to incorporate an outdoor fire feature? Whether your backyard dreams involve bundling up for a chat with a couple of close confidantes, nestled on a cushioned outdoor love seat, or invite the whole gang over for s’mores and ghost stories, the solution is the same: Just add fire. Portable Fire Pit If you’re looking for design flexibility, you could be moved - so to speak - by a portable, standalone fire pit. These models offer a sort of a campfire feel. Because you can place them anywhere, they offer 360-degree access, which makes them perfect for group gatherings. Which enables maximum conviviality, extra-loud “Kumbaya” singing and an unlimited number of people who can get their marshmallow-roasting sticks into the mix! Standalone fire pits may not have the anchored, homey

Chiminea: $150-500 If you love the atmosphere a fireplace creates, but are limited by budget and space, a Chiminea is an excellent option. Chimineas burn wood and can be moved around your yard, or even from one property to another. However, their small size makes it hard for many people to gather round and enjoy the fire. Prefab Fireplace: $1,500-9,000 If you are looking for a fireplace with a fairly substantial look, but aren’t ready to pay a skilled mason to build one from scratch, then a prefab model is right for you. A majority of prefab fireplaces are made of reinforced concrete and equipped to burn natural gas or propane. One of the best things about going prefab is that the fireplace can be installed quickly and enjoyed almost right away. When it comes to cost, watch for high shipping, freight or delivery charges. It is more affordable to order products like this from as nearby as possible. Fireplace Kit: $2,000-7,000 The major paver companies offer pre-built modular fireplace units built with their products. These fireplaces go together like a kit, think Legos or Lincoln Logs. Most fireplaces come in three or four pieces and can be set in place with a forklift. The end result looks like a fireplace built out of many individual blocks. Keep in mind that you will have additional costs for footings and a concrete foundation, as well as labor. Unfinished Contractor Models: $1,000-4,000 A handful of companies offer outdoor fireplaces that come ready to be customized. The structure has been prefabricated, but is in an unfinished state. This means that stone, stucco or material of your choice can be used to finish off the fireplace in a fashion that is as cohesive as possible with your home and landscape. Such models are either made

of sturdy concrete board or of cast concrete. There will be additional costs for the purchase and installation of your veneer materials. Custom-Built Fireplace Built-In Fireplace: $8,000-20,000 If you’re feeling a bit more attached to your outdoor design, a built-in fireplace might fit the bill. Fireplaces create an intimate hearth feeling and can invite lively (yet civilized!) conversation among a small group of people. One advantage to built-in fireplaces is that they’re protected from the elements - namely wind, which can kick up embers and shift the direction of the smoke - and direct smoke upward and away from your guests’ faces. That protection will also make it much easier to light. As far as materials go, you’ll be building out your fireplace in a material that matches or coordinates with the other materials in your outdoor space: brick, stone, marble, tile, you name it. Aesthetically, the sky’s the limit. Some are wood fueled, and others are hooked into your home’s natural gas line just like any indoor fireplace would be. Built-in fireplaces definitely offer an extra boost of aesthetic appeal that a free-standing fire pit won’t. Installing one will also add value to your outdoor living space if you keep it in top shape; that kind of high-end extension to your indoors makes the patio livable for more months out of the year and adds that high-end je ne sais quoi. (Translation: lots of appeal to potential homebuyers.) But before you go worrying about what the future owners of your current home will think, just focus on enjoying the bright flame in your backyard, regardless of the season.
