In neighborhoods across Murfreesboro, Christiana, Rockvale, and beyond, one outdoor trend is heating up—literally. Outdoor kitchens are becoming one of the most popular home upgrades in Middle Tennessee, and for good reason.
At Reed’s Remodeling, we’ve seen firsthand how an outdoor kitchen transforms a backyard from a basic lawn into a true entertaining destination. Here’s why more homeowners are investing in these functional, stylish outdoor spaces—and how you can design one that fits your home and lifestyle.
🍔 1. The Joy of Cooking Outside
No one wants to be stuck in a hot kitchen while guests enjoy the patio. Outdoor kitchens bring the cooking into the heart of the party, allowing you to prepare meals, serve drinks, and socialize—all in one place.
From casual grilling to gourmet meals, outdoor kitchens make everyday cooking feel like an event.
🧱 2. Built to Fit Your Space
Outdoor kitchens are highly customizable. Whether you want a small prep station with a grill and counter space, or a full-service kitchen with appliances and bar seating, we’ll tailor the design to your yard and your needs.
Popular features include:
-
Built-in gas or charcoal grills
-
Side burners or griddles
-
Outdoor sinks and prep counters
-
Stone or brick base with granite or concrete countertops
-
Mini fridges or kegerators
-
Pizza ovens and smokers
-
Bar seating or adjacent dining areas
The layout can be L-shaped, U-shaped, or island-style, depending on your space.
🔨 3. Durable, Weather-Ready Materials
Tennessee weather calls for outdoor kitchens that can handle sun, rain, and changing temperatures. We use weather-resistant materials like:
-
Stainless steel appliances
-
Sealed stone or concrete countertops
-
Moisture-resistant cabinets
-
Proper drainage and ventilation design
With the right construction, your outdoor kitchen can last for years with minimal maintenance.
📈 4. Adds Real Value to Your Home
Outdoor kitchens don’t just improve your quality of life—they boost your home’s resale value, too. Buyers love the idea of move-in-ready outdoor spaces, especially when they’re well-built and integrated into the overall landscape.
In Middle Tennessee’s growing housing market, upgrades like this stand out and help your property compete.
🧑🍳 5. Perfect for Year-Round Use
Pair your outdoor kitchen with a covered patio, ceiling fan, or pergola, and you can enjoy it spring through fall—and even into winter with the right heating options. Add a fire feature or outdoor fireplace nearby, and you’ve got a four-season setup.
