Have you been checking out your backyard recently and thinking it could use a bit of updating? Are you sick of lackluster gatherings of family and friends around a charcoal grill and a few lawn chairs? If so, consider the multiple benefits of adding an outdoor kitchen to your exterior space.  And we have 4 reasons you should give serious consideration to Danver, the gold standard within this industry.  

Reason #1: Increase the Value of the Home

When you add a fully functioning kitchen to your outdoor living space—one that’s just as beautiful and functional as anything inside your home—you’re essentially adding usable square footage to the property. This can increase the value of the home when it comes time to sell or to rent it out.

By choosing a brand like Danver, you’re getting a high-quality product that’s thoughtfully and artfully designed, and this goes a long way toward securing a favorable return on investment (ROI). If you choose a brand that can’t withstand the elements well and quickly shows wear and tear or overt damage, you’re missing out on equity down the line.

Reasons #2: Add a Place to Cook and to Entertain Year Round

Unless your home can accommodate large groups of people comfortably, you’re typically limited in how many months out of the year you can cook and entertain for groups. By adding an outdoor kitchen (with a few strategic additions), you can conceivably entertain year round.

Depending on where you live, you can add relevant features to your outdoor kitchen to ensure it remains functional and comfortable no matter the month. The first factor to consider is heat. When you need to combat the chill in the air, you’ll want to think about incorporating a fire feature of some variety or installing heaters.

The second factor is insect control. If you experience seasonal flying pests, they can quickly ruin any outdoor gathering. Think about adding screens to your outdoor area to combat this. Retractable screens are particularly popular since they offer the option of an open-air feel. Screens can also double as a useful means of wind protection, if that’s a consideration where you live.

Reason #3: Enjoy “Staycations” in Your Own Backyard

Often a vacation is less about the actual destination and more about the ability to relax, to unwind, and to feel as if you’ve gotten away from the hustle and bustle of your daily life. If you create an appealing oasis in your own backyard, you can get all that—without ever stepping foot on a plane.

If vacationing in your own home is on the agenda, consider adding elements to your outdoor kitchen that facilitate that. Built-in bars, wine coolers, and beer on tap are all popular options. Don’t forget you’ll also need lots of durable, beautiful storage to hold all your vacation necessities, from extra rum bottles to those pillows that perfectly accompany the lounger you could just stay in all day. Danver provides stainless steel outdoor cabinetry that won’t rust, warp, or dent—no matter the external conditions—and it’s elegant enough to help you image you’re relaxing in a swanky resort. (The only giveaway you’re at home will be the conspicuous lack of fighting with other tourists over the best chairs in the house!)

Reason #4: Enhance the Lifestyle You Can Enjoy in Your Home

How often do you use and enjoy your backyard? If it’s been a while since it’s been updated and refreshed, it’s probably not as much as it could be. If you add a modern outdoor kitchen, however, that area can suddenly feel like truly usable square footage of the home. By adding a Danver kitchen specifically, you get the benefit of durable, well-crafted cabinetry that’s also designed with aesthetics in mind.

It’s a pretty simply concept: if you enjoy the space, you’re much more likely to use it often. In this way, simply adding a kitchen to your property can allow you to get even more enjoyment out of your existing home.

Do you love to entertain but avoid having big crowds over because you simply don’t have the space in your house? An outdoor kitchen can make it much more feasible and comfortable to accommodate large gatherings of family and friends.

Like any good remodel work or renovation, the end result of a new outdoor kitchen means you get to stay in the house you love while also enjoying all the modern, updated features you’ve added.

**Bonus Reason**

It’s not just private homeowners who can see a favorable ROI with a Danver outdoor kitchen. For commercial properties or multifamily areas, adding this feature can help to make a property more profitable. Adding luxury amenities can make your commercial space more desirable, and for multifamily properties, these kinds of modern touches can be the differentiating factor that convinces someone to choose your property over one that doesn’t provide such high-end options.
