Luxury Outdoor Kitchen Design – Project #69
Our designers crafted this luxury outdoor kitchen design for homeowners in The Concession (Manatee County). This prestigious gated community offers a serene environment and an award-winning golf course. Set within a large, enclosed lanai facing the lush backyard garden, this fully customized outdoor kitchen combines high-end materials, a functional layout, and sleek contemporary styling—ideal for upscale Florida living.
Thoughtfully Designed U-Shaped Outdoor Kitchen Layout
The project features a U-shaped outdoor kitchen layout, one of the most efficient and versatile configurations for homeowners who enjoy cooking and entertaining simultaneously.Each section of the U serves a specific function to promote a smooth workflow.
- Cooking Zone: Anchored by a premium Blaze 3 Pro Grill and a power side burner, this dedicated cooking area provides ample space for preparing meals while maintaining an open view of the lanai and garden.
- Prep & Cleaning Zone: Just adjacent to the cooking area, a drop-in sink and integrated storage cabinets make food preparation and cleanup convenient and straightforward.
- Bar & Entertaining Zone: A spacious bar counter provides room for casual seating, serving, and hosting friends and family outdoors.
In addition, the kitchen includes stand-alone, three-section storage cabinets equipped with soft-close drawers, adding both practicality and luxury to the space.
Modern Cabinetry & Materials Built for Florida Weather
American Outdoor Cabinets’ experts crafted the cabinetry from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), a material designed specifically for outdoor durability.. HDPE will not warp, fade, or delaminate in Florida’s intense heat, humidity, rain, or coastal conditions. It is extremely low-maintenance and retains its appearance for years, making it one of the best choices for outdoor kitchens in Sarasota and Manatee County.
The rich charcoal color of the cabinets creates a sophisticated contrast against the sand-toned walls and floor tiles of the lanai. This modern palette brings a calming effect while elevating the entire outdoor area with a sophisticated, upscale feel.
Topping the cabinetry is a marble-style quartz countertop—chosen for its durability, elegant appearance, and easy upkeep. The subtle veining provides beautiful visual harmony with the charcoal cabinetry.
