AP Dodson’s Top 4 Tips for Creating the Perfect Outdoor Space

It may seem like the summer heat is here to stay but here’s a reminder that cooler temperatures are just around the corner! Now is the ideal time to start planning and creating your perfect outdoor living space, ready to be enjoyed when fall arrives. At AP Dodson, we understand the significance of outdoor living areas, and we’re committed to helping you make the most of them.

Discover our Top 4 ways to elevate your outdoor living space:

Seating and Tables

It may seem obvious, but seating is our first go to for enhancing your outdoor living area. Add lawn chairs, outdoor couches, hammocks, or porch swings, outdoor seating helps create an atmosphere that invites people to unwind from the day and relax. 

Like many of our available homes, lot 11 in Settlement at Silverstone includes an expansive front porch perfect for outdoor seating. Having chairs outside allows you to partake in a range of outdoor activities besides sitting. You can participate in bird watching, sitting around a fire pit for smores, stargazing, and relaxing with a good book to read!

The perfect pair to go along with seating is tables, which can include side tables, picnic tables, outdoor coffee tables, and dining tables. Having coffee and side tables can provide convenience for you and your guests. 

If you love to entertain and have large parties of people over, picnic tables and dining tables are for you! With both of these tables, you can give your guests an ample number of places to sit and enjoy their food! Most AP Dodson homes provide side or back porches that are the perfect size for having tables and seating. So with AP Dodson, there is no need to worry about having the best entertainment spot.
