Only an hour away from Chicago, this New Buffalo, Michigan, home feels like a total escape from the big city. With breathtaking views of the Galien River, an infinity pool, and a luxurious Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet kitchen, this industrial farmhouse style home combines beautiful, but functional architectural style.

The homeowner says that while the kitchen needed to look amazing, it also had to excel at outdoor cooking, and would be used often. With that in mind, a design was created to ensure that cooking in this outdoor kitchen was both easy and enjoyable. The Kalamazoo K750HB Hybrid Fire Grill handles the cooking duties with ease, while a pair of refrigerated drawers keeps food chilled, even in the hottest temperatures, until it’s ready for the grill. The addition of a sink means there’s no need to head into the house for washing up. Even with the large grill, refrigeration, sink, and plenty of weather-tight storage cabinets, the outdoor kitchen is neatly tucked into the corner of the deck, just steps from the back door of the house. Proximity to the house is a particularly important detail, as the homeowners love to cook throughout the frigid Michigan winters, so accessibility is key.   

Every design decision made ensured the outdoor kitchen would be a dream to cook in. No detail was overlooked, from big components, such as choosing the right grill, to smaller elements, like incorporating ample task lighting and plenty of electrical outlets.

This outdoor kitchen has been a welcome addition to the home, giving the homeowners a new way to enjoy their beautiful backyard. What could be better than savoring a delicious meal hot off the grill, while watching the sun set over the river?
