There’s nothing better than enjoying the coastal breeze and ocean views from the comfort of your own outdoor living space. At Avalon Construction Management, we’ve helped countless homeowners transform their outdoor areas into beautiful, functional retreats perfect for relaxing and entertaining.
Here are some of the best outdoor living features to consider for your shore house.
1. Spacious Decks and Patios
Decks and patios are essential for any beach home. Composite decking materials are highly recommended for coastal environments due to their resistance to moisture, rot, and fading. A spacious deck adds instant value and provides the perfect spot to unwind or host family and friends.
2. Outdoor Kitchens
Take your summer entertaining to the next level with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen. Built-in grills, refrigerators, sinks, and ample counter space create a seamless space for cooking and socializing outdoors. Stainless steel appliances are ideal for withstanding salty coastal air.
3. Covered Porches and Pergolas
Create a shady retreat from the sun with a custom pergola or covered porch. These structures not only add visual appeal but also provide practical shelter so you can enjoy the outdoors comfortably in all kinds of weather.
4. Outdoor Showers
An outdoor shower is a must-have for any shore house. It keeps sand and saltwater outside where they belong and adds a touch of luxury to your property. Our team designs stylish and durable outdoor showers that complement your home’s exterior.
5. Fire Pits and Fireplaces
Extend your outdoor living season with a custom fire pit or outdoor fireplace. Perfect for cool coastal evenings, they create a cozy ambiance and serve as a natural gathering point for family and friends.
6. Custom Lighting
Good lighting transforms your outdoor space. We recommend low-voltage landscape lighting, LED pathway lights, and stylish sconces to enhance safety and create a warm, inviting atmosphere long after the sun goes down.
7. Privacy Landscaping
Create a peaceful escape with well-designed landscaping that adds privacy and beauty. We can help you select salt-tolerant plants and design garden beds, hedges, or trellises that thrive in coastal environments.
8. Durable Outdoor Furniture
Invest in high-quality outdoor furniture built to withstand sun, salt, and moisture. Teak, powder-coated aluminum, and all-weather wicker are excellent options for a shore home.
