Today, more and more homeowners are discovering the joys and benefits of outdoor living. The outdoor kitchen, for instance, has proven itself a viable asset to home ownership with regards to increasing the value of the property. In fact, Zillow reports that homes with outdoor kitchens have an increased value of up to 30 percent. However, a ROI, or return for investment isn't the only benefit you get from having an outdoor kitchen. Others include an increase in living area for you and your family, as well as a unique entertainment area.

The outdoor space which once sat unused, for the most part, will now have a function, a purpose. Today's outdoor kitchen layouts can have anything from an outdoor theater, bearing wall seating, grilling areas, pizza ovens, bars, smokers and more. Add some outdoor furnishings, and you have a comfortable family living area outdoors for you and yours. Some homeowners have even gone as far as to erect a summer shelter around their outdoor kitchens.
