Fire pits are quickly becoming one of the hottest outdoor living design trends. Something both kids and adults can enjoy in the summer and fall, fire pits add a relaxing element to any outdoor space.
In good company with pergolas, wooden decks and outdoor kitchens, fire pits actually add significant value to your home, with most homeowners recouping 78% of the total investment when it comes time to sell.
Homeowners that opt to use materials like stone or brick when constructing an outdoor fire pit will often see the most return when it comes time to list, and running a natural gas line to the fire pit proves to be an even bigger selling feature with buyers.
Fire pit fanatics that are looking for a more budget friendly option can opt to create their own fire pit, often in a weekend and still win major ambiance points with future buyers.
