For some, summer is the ideal time to make use of your outdoor space. For others, it’s just too hot in the summer in Alabama, and fall is more your speed.
If you fall into the latter category – and you are not alone – you may be dreaming of an outdoor space where you can enjoy the cooler weather that’s coming sooner or later.
This article from This Old House has 42 ideas that you’ll want to check out. And amazingly missing from those 42 ideas is what may be the most important item: a massive TV for watching college football.
Aside from that, here are a few of our favorite ideas:
- Patio pavers
- Easy-care furnishings
- An outdoor ceiling fan (this kinda feels like a must, huh?)
- A fire pit
- Screens (so the mosquitos stay outside)
- Potted plants
- An awning
- Paint the floor
Thankfully, we have a great idea on how to help you pay for it too: tap into your home’s equity with a HELOCPlus+.
What's that? Good question. Read more about the HELOCPlus+ here.
