Outdoor living spaces are now as important as any room in the house. But that serene and chilled feeling that only comes from outdoor spaces does not have to end just because it’s winter. Whether you have a vast collection of spaces, a balcony, or something in between, you can create something magical that you can benefit from all-year-round.

Shelter
Whether you opt for awnings, pergolas, umbrellas, a gazebo, or your own unique design. Complement the aesthetics of your home and shield yourself from the rain.

Comfort
The key is to combine comfort with durability. So, acquire cushions, couches, throws, rugs, and tables that can cope with a bit of moisture and cold weather. More importantly, if you are warm and comfortable, you will enjoy your outdoor space. Then you can relax after a hard day's work.

Entertainment
Add music with portable speakers, an outdoor big screen for your favourite films, or a telescope for stargazing. Enjoy a warm, fresh-air experience as you take in the inviting view from your outdoor space, perhaps overlooking the garden.. Maybe you would prefer to curl up with a good book or entertain guests.

Fire
If you are entertaining, you can’t ask all your guests to curl up under a blanket! Adding a patio heater, fire pit, or outdoor wood burner can elevate the ambiance. You can’t beat the crackling of a real fire. Perhaps you already have a log store, and if you don't, consider getting one to add character to your relaxation space.

Sleep
An outdoor lounger or hammock is a great spot for an afternoon nap. Enjoy a good book, try some meditation, or get comfortable for movie night.

Food
You've got several options to elevate your al fresco dining. Build a comprehensive outdoor kitchen for a gourmet experience or just add a table to enjoy meals as the sun sets and into the evening. For a middle-ground solution, how about installing a fridge to keep your beers chilled throughout the summer? If it's a hot cuppa you fancy in the winter, adding a few electrical sockets means you won't have to trek back to the kitchen to boil the kettle.

Drink
An integrated bar will also help save your legs, especially if you are fond of cocktails. Whether it is an extravagant design with bar stools or a small cupboard, it will become more appealing when adorned with nice details. But if you prefer more mainstream choices, add a coffee machine or juice bar in case you want to work from home in your outdoor living space!

Light
Lights on strings, solar lighting, and candles, all available in an infinite variety of styles and shapes, will add warmth to your outdoor space. Soft lighting for romantic or relaxing evenings will create a magical glow. Modern or antique lanterns will stop the flames from going out, and you can relax or entertain to your heart's content.

Will an outdoor living space add value to your home?
The answer is undeniably yes. Your property will be a much better home to live in, and the more refined your outdoor space is, the more desirable your home will be to prospective buyers.
