This beautiful outdoor living space is in the heart of the Memorial area in Houston. A quiet retreat tucked in among a very busy city.
This multi-use space was created to allow for comfortable living outdoors. A spacious 2-room feel with vaulted ceilings and travertine floors. A beautiful stucco accent wall hides the fact that this is attached to the back of the garage.
The recessed can and rope lighting in the vaulted ceiling creates a very comfortable living area. We actually installed an outdoor AC to help keep them cool on really hot days.
This fireplace has hill country charm written all over it. The central attraction to the sitting area! A wood burning (or gas log) fireplace that has a reclaimed hemlock mantle is the perfect place to be sitting next to on those chilly days and nights.
The outdoor space is a perfect pool house…there are great views to the pool from the sitting area, so parents can keep an eye on the kids in the pool.
The large outdoor kitchen has space for everything. A green egg, a grill, and plenty of counter space to prepare and serve the family and friends that will be over while they are entertaining.
The outdoor kitchen area flows into the long dining area and right into the sitting area. This outdoor living space has it all!
Just another view of the whole space.
Here is the overgrown back yard with an old greenhouse that was removed. What a difference we made in this Memorial area back yard!
I have a lot of experience with construction and renovations, so some contractors find me annoying at best. My outdoor living project was larger than I was able to take on as it entailed adding an outdoor living area, kitchen, dining room, and bathroom with a fireplace and fire pit. It’s built onto an existing structure with a tile roof in a seamless manner. The completed project is amazing, and was featured in the Houzz project of the month for December 2013. It was a very large project so it took a long time to complete, however the process was absolutely painless. In my previous experiences, I have always had issues with miscommunications and added costs, among other things. My experience with Texas Custom Patios included NONE of these issues. The finished project far exceeded my expectations. The workmanship was superior, and the quality of the products is top of the line. I truly highly recommend them.
