A California room? Even if you live in California, you may not know what that is. In simple terms, it’s an outdoor room … part room, part patio. It can be as quaint or luxurious as you want, and it’s one of the most welcoming rooms in or outside of your house during the late spring to early autumn months.
California Room in Sun City Center? Why Not?
They’re typically found at the rear of a home. Many times, a sliding glass door connects them to the rest of the house. Think of it as a covered space with luxurious “indoor” type furniture, but with a twist. Your typical couch, ottoman, and accent tables may be mixed with a chase lounge of the same fabric. Curtains separate the room from the outdoors much as a wall would inside.
Some include a place to dine much like a dining room with a movable (during winter months, this will come in handy) entertainment center.
A Kitchen
Yes, many California rooms include a kitchen. It’s not as “out there” as you might think. During hot summer months, you don’t want to heat up your kitchen which will then heat up your whole house. A grill, outdoor sink, and small refrigerator mixes things up and make outdoor living very, very comfortable.
It’s not just one of the trendiest things going on right now, but it’s extremely versatile. You can use country, Tuscany, or lavish, Mediterranean style decor for your California room. Houzz and Pinterest offer great inspirational ideas for decorating. A simple Google image search will offer great ideas as well.
There’s no need to go elaborate either. Your Sun City Center California room can be tailored to fit your budget. Just a small porch with cozy furniture gives the feel of an outdoor room.
Separate your must-haves from your nice-to-haves and get started on your very own California room.
