Outdoor Living at its Best

Happy Early Summer! It’s starting to get hot and the smell of backyard barbecues are back in force. The best backyard summer parties are about to take place and no doubt they will feature beautiful decks, pergolas, and garden areas. Beyond the obvious, there are so many great advantages to having an outdoor living area in your home.

People with decks tend to spend more time outside. Fresh air and sunshine are one of the simplest ways to enrich day-to-day life. A deck is also great if you like to lay out in the sun or are tired of reading your favorite novels inside. Purchasing a home that boasts a deck could lead to a new pastime. You could become the new grille master of the neighborhood!

Extra living space! We all like to have as much square-footage to utilize in our homes as possible. While living in the midwest it’s temperate here for about eight months a year. Which means for 66% of the year you functionally add the entire square footage of your deck to livable square footage of your home! 

Making your outdoor spaces fit YOUR style, can be as much fun as decorating the inside. Most people love to entertain guests so furniture, pools, hot tubs, shade, and beautiful landscaping are a must. Whether simplistic is your style or if you like a lot of things for entertaining, some people choose their home based on outdoor features!

There are many homes available right now in and around the Springfield area which feature all types of outdoor spaces for any enthusiast. Perhaps you don’t relish the time you could spend on your outdoor deck, but gardening space and infrastructure to grow can be just as therapeutic. Holt Homes Group has multiple listings available now featuring these outdoor living enhancements, and they are available at a variety of budget ranges.
