Built in the Esplanade in a Taylor Morrison home, this outdoor kitchen is 10’2” long (along the back wall) and perpendicular to the back wall is bar top that is 7’6” in length. We installed a bar top that has a depth of 24” and arcs to 30” for a soft, finished look that provides plenty of space. The homeowner opted for an L-Shape counter bar top for seating and eating. Once again we were able to pack a ton of function into a small space without affecting movement around the area!
The backsplash includes a 36” x 36” square centered behind the grill and under the hood. This allows for easier maintenance and cleaning from any smoke residue that the grill may produce. The color selections include the Silver Travertine stacked stone and a level 1 Blue Sapphire granite. We also added a 4.1 CU refriderator to help keep food and beverages cold all year round.

Another custom outdoor grill build in the veranda in a home built by Kolter. This lanai offered lots of space at 11’7” in length, but the idea was to keep things simplistic with this outdoor kitchen. The homeowner went with the Cappadocia stacked stone base and a level 1 granite counter top with a simple 4” backsplash. We added a sink and refrigerator so that it offered all of the functionality that our customer desired. The design is a straight layout that offers easy access and a lot of counter space. Our custom kitchen design will make this living space perfect all year round!
We were happy to deliver what the customer was looking for and that is always our goal at Elegant Outdoor Kitchens! No matter how complex or simple the customer’s vision may be, we always work closely with each one to make sure that we get it right.

At Elegant Outdoor Kitchens we don’t have problems, we have solutions! This custom summer kitchen is constructed in the Pulte community Camden Square in Fort Myers. This custom summer kitchen proves that you do not need a lot of space to accomplish your goals and reminds us why building everything on-site and custom is so beneficial.
To keep from infringing on the walkway from the sliding glass doors, the base of the outdoor kitchen along the back wall is just 6’ 7” long with the granite extending at an angle over to the casing of the sliders. As a result, this shorter base limited us on room for the sink. We easily overcame the issue by tucking it into the corner at an angle. This kept the sink from having to go into the refrigerator base, which would then cut into the bar seating area for guests. Finding solutions to fit our customer needs is what we love to do!
The refrigerator section that runs perpendicular to the back wall is 6’ 8” in length and has an overhang of 7” off the back and the left side. The bar tops are perfect for those wanting to cook and chat it up with company simultaneously. The design selection highlights the owner’s unique personality, with the Light Travertine stacked stone and a Level 1 Uba Tuba granite. Not only is the base wrapped in the stacked stone, but the owner’s also opted to continue it along the entire back wall and even below counter height in the area to the right of the grill base. They choose to install a 36” x 36” piece of granite behind the grill for easier cleaning. The most unique aspect of this kitchen is the chiseled edge, which is hard to notice in photos but certainly eye-catching in person.

First of all, this was a super fun outdoor custom kitchen to build! The lanai is quite large which gave the homeowner a lot of options to complete the summer kitchen they were looking for. Their barbecue island faces back toward the sitting area under the covered lanai and faces out toward the pool and spa. Next, the homeowners wanted an outdoor refrigerator with glass shelving and outdoor TV mounted so that it could be viewed from the spa and we were excited to make that happen. This outdoor living area is now ready for year round food and fun!
Along the side of the home, the L-shape outdoor kitchen is 7’0” in length and 7’10” on the side running parallel with the home. The 7’0” section has an arching bar top on the back side. It is 34” deep at the corners arched to a depth of 40” at the center. The rounded bar top has a way of playing into the rich traditional feel and color choices of this outdoor kitchen. We are very proud of how this custom kitchen turned out!
Components:
The components used in this build were the Blaze 32” 4-burner Traditional Series grill with the 32” double door/access door combo underneath and a narrow trash pull-out with 42 qt trash bin. Our customer selected a Summit 4.6 CU FT outdoor refrigerator with glass shelving. To really make this outdoor kitchen complete and coming just in time for that perfect fall weather and football season, we installed the fully weatherized Samsung 4k HD outdoor television!
We are a little jealous (but only in the best possible way) about all the fun they are going to have centered around their new outdoor living space!

The focal point is a Blaze 34″ 3-Burner grill. Each burner is capable of emitting 18,000 BTUs of cooking power equaling 54,000 total. The infrared rear-rotisserie burner adds another 10,000 BTUs. With 816 square inches of total cooking space, a push and turn flame-thrower primary ignition system, a removable warming rack, a full-width drip tray, illuminated control knobs and interior lights to enable cooking at any time of day, the Blaze Professional Series exceeds the needs of many in one-fell-swoop.
Its chilly counterpart, the 4.1 cubic foot Blaze Outdoor Refrigerator, finds its niche as well in this gorgeous Elegant Outdoor Kitchen. Wrapped in 304-grade stainless steel, it’s spacious and customizable, providing a reversible door option to open left or right in addition to 3 adjustable and removable wire storage shelves.

An Elegant Outdoor Kitchen and Paradise[/caption]In Corkscrew Shores of Southwest, Florida, we visit someone else’s. This 13’3″ Outdoor Kitchen provides copious amounts of counter space, allowing these residents effortless cookouts to be enjoyed year round! Featuring an undermount sink with a high-arc faucet, a vertical door to access the plumbing, a Blaze 42″ vent hood with a custom stainless vent cover, the 32″ 4-Burner Blaze LTE Series grill (which has those awesome red-lit knobs), an infrared searing burner, the 32″ double drawer/door combo under the grill, a rollout-narrow trash bin that holds a 42 qt bin, and the 4.5 cubic foot Blaze stainless front outdoor refrigerator with the corresponding trim kit.The facade is Silver Travertine that was paired with a Level 3 Steel Gray Granite. The backsplash and side splash are 12″ in height, rising to 36″ for a width of 42″ centered under the hood and behind the grill. Going with the larger granite backsplash gives this outdoor kitchen a prominent look while helping to keep maintenance to a minimum.
An outdoor kitchen is sometimes meant to serve a greater purpose than becoming a place to do. It’s our place to be. Sometimes it’s a release, our reprieve from everyday life and the stresses endured as we provide for our family or selves. It’s our ocean where the tides clear our minds of any debris that can’t seem to disintegrate from the beach. It can be our second home, our thinking space where we time travel into grace and wisdom. That umbrella that overhangs us means more to us than the shade it creates, it’s an accessory where we can teleport ourselves in those slow moments, those thoughtful moments, those reflective moments. Idle and happy we are as we sit beneath that little red star. Just watching. Being.
Custom Outdoor Kitchen Beneath a Red Star
Located just outside the covered lanai is where we lay our keep. Our customer wanted to incorporate his existing grill and cart in the center of this gorgeous summer kitchen. He also wanted a sink and icemaker which naturally meant running plumbing to the new base. After creating our blueprint for operation, we began constructing a small kitchen base to the left of the grill with a built-in single-access door for storage. The remainder of the L-shaped kitchen was to the right. Keeping variety in mind, this outdoor kitchen was designed with an 18″ bartop in the event company joined beneath that red star. We cut a custom hole in the granite and, on the interior, braced the umbrella to provide it with the stability necessary for all weather conditions. Further customizations consisted of making both the countertop and bartop curved on the opposite side of the sink. We were more than happy to accommodate his request.
In the courtyard of a multi-family complex, somewhere in the heart of Southwest Florida, lied a dated, underused outdoor kitchen in need of reconstructive surgery. Surrounded by the beauty of nature and constructs of humankind, it shouldn’t have been the bane of its proximity. But often obsolescence has a funny way of showing its face; it isn’t something one can recognize in the moment, but rather it creeps into your consciousness like a leaf spiraling and dancing through the autumn air until it lands at your feet. When you pick it up, you examine it, tear into it, and watch as a newer, more healthy batch takes its place.
Let’s work!
We spent about 3 hours in the conceptual stages, planning the most economical way the grill replacement could ensue. The issue was conforming our new barbecue to fit the old parameters of the island. We toyed with a few different ideas but ultimately decided it made the most sense to build a new grill base out of aluminum for the jacket to hang from; however, the grill jacket was not wide enough to completely fill the opening left by the existing cutout. To overcome this dilemma, we had additional stainless steel components fabricated to perfectly fill in the remainder of the opening.
“Just wanted to let you know the guys did a great job installing the grills. We appreciate it. They look great. Good job, kudos.”
“We love our new outdoor kitchen built by Elegant Outdoor Kitchens! Andrea, Ben and their team were wonderful to work with on the project and completed it ahead of schedule. We highly recommend Elegant Outdoor Kitchens of Fort Myers, FL.”
An obstacle we’d come across early on, though, was the decision of where to relocate the spigot. If collectively we hadn’t elected to mount it on the exterior wall of the kitchen, it would’ve been blocked in by the base, essentially making it inaccessible. The customer was very pleased with its newfound position as are we! They also opted to continue the Golden White stacked stone up to the opening for a more enriched, traditional-looking backsplash. It certainly is seamless and, dare we say, Elegant.
With plenty of counterspace and functionality, from the refrigerator to the storage bins, this outdoor kitchen serves a distinct purpose and will indisputedly create memories to last a life time.
