Custom Kitchen Seventy-Seven

Outdoor Kitchen – Project #77 in Lakewood Ranch, Florida

A Custom Outdoor Kitchen Designed for a Lakewood Ranch Golf Club Home

Project #77 is a beautifully crafted Lakewood Ranch outdoor kitchen built for a homeowner in one of the area’s premier golf club communities. The kitchen sits in a partially enclosed patio, which makes it ideal for year-round cooking and entertaining in the Sarasota–Bradenton region. The homeowners wanted a stylish outdoor kitchen that included every essential feature, combined with durable materials and a clean, high-end look. Our team designed a space that checks every box: modern, functional, weatherproof, and perfectly aligned with the home’s architecture.

Premium Outdoor Kitchen Essentials

This outdoor kitchen in Lakewood Ranch, FL includes a full suite of Coyote appliances, HDPE cabinetry, and soft-close storage features. Every element was chosen for performance and durability in Florida’s warm, humid climate.

Coyote Pro Series 36″ Grill

This premium grill is one of the kitchen’s highlights. It includes:

  • A four-burner propane gas system
  • A powerful sear burner for restaurant-style grilling
  • A built-in warming rack
  • Interior lighting for evening cooking
  • Heavy-duty stainless steel construction built for the outdoors

The grill provides consistent heat, fast ignition, and impressive cooking versatility—perfect for everything from weeknight meals to weekend gatherings.

Cooling Features

Outdoor cooking requires reliable cooling, especially in Florida’s climate. This kitchen includes two excellent cooling components:

Coyote Drop-In Cooler

  • Made from marine-grade stainless steel
  • Ideal for ice, beverages, and quick food prep
  • Helps reduce trips inside the home

Azure Outdoor Refrigerator

  • Designed for outdoor temperatures
  • Energy-efficient operation
  • Maintains steady cooling in Florida’s heat

Together, these cooling options make hosting easier and keep the patio cooking process efficient.

Drop-In Stainless Steel Sink

A drop-in sink adds convenience to meal prep and cleanup. It allows the homeowners to rinse ingredients, wash tools, and clean up without going indoors.

The sink is made from weather-resistant stainless steel, which pairs perfectly with the other appliances in the kitchen.

Stainless Steel Vent Hood by Tradewinds

Because this outdoor kitchen is located in a partially enclosed space, proper ventilation is essential. The Florida building code requires a vent hood in these situations to ensure safety and air quality.

The Tradewinds vent hood:

  • Removes smoke, grease, and heat
  • Protects ceilings, cabinetry, and appliances
  • Improves comfort during grilling

Smart Storage With Soft-Close Features

Every well-designed outdoor kitchen needs storage that can handle the elements. Project #77 includes:

  • Spacious cabinets for cookware and serving items
  • Soft-close drawers for utensils and tools
  • Soft-close cabinet doors for a smooth, modern user experience

Soft-close hardware makes the kitchen feel higher-end and ensures quiet operation—a major benefit in an enclosed patio area.

HDPE cabinets won’t swell, warp, rot, or rust—even in coastal climates.

The Power of HDPE Outdoor Cabinets

The entire kitchen includes HDPE cabinetry, which stands out as one of the most reliable materials for outdoor use. HDPE is ideal for homes in Lakewood Ranch because it handles heat, humidity, sudden rain, UV rays, and coastal air better than wood or metal.

HDPE cabinets in this project offer:

Weatherproof Durability

HDPE is waterproof, UV-stable, and resistant to salt air, moisture, and Florida’s heat.

Low Maintenance

No painting, sealing, or staining required. Cabinets stay beautiful with simple cleaning.

Color-Through Material

Because the color goes all the way through the material, it won’t fade, peel, chip, or show scratches easily.

Superior Structural Strength

HDPE will never swell, warp, or deteriorate, even with daily outdoor use.

Precision Craftsmanship

Every cabinet is cut using advanced CNC machinery. This creates consistent sizing, seamless fit, and professional results.

This kitchen features Sport-style doors in Indigo, giving the design a bold, modern, and upscale look.
