How to Transform Your Townhome Backyard This Summer

The best summer memories are usually made outdoors, and at Treasure Hill we’re here to help you make the most of your home’s outdoor space.

Here are a few ideas for your townhome that are worth considering no matter the size of your space or location.

Swing Into It

If your patio space is limited, consider adding an outdoor swing that can seat up to three people. Most patio furniture comes in a set which can make your backyard look crowded if you don’t have the space. With a patio swing, all you need are a couple of throw pillows and maybe a side table to complement it — and there you have it, a cozy seating area!

The average cost for a swing at Canadian Tire typically ranges between $80 - $500, relatively inexpensive compared to a conversation or patio set.

Dip-In Pool

Don’t rule out a pool just yet! In-ground dip-in or plunge pools are typically 6 - 10 feet wide and about 22 feet long — the perfect size for a townhome lot. These pools are purposely built for lounging and prices for your new at-home oasis start at about $20,000.

Townhome backyards are usually longer than they are wide, so a pool can also create the impression that you have more space.

Tabletop Firepit

A gas fire table can be easily installed in your backyard, and there are plenty of options available that you can integrate nicely to match your home’s theme.

Traditional or classic made with a steel burner and wide tabletop for food and drinks.

Rustic-style built with a stainless-steel burner and ceramic wood-like tile.

Contemporary, often made with sunbeam pearl concrete and stainless-steel burner.

A firepit table can create a cozy ambiance that is great for entertaining family and friends. The installation process is simple, and it’s easy to maintain once complete. Contact a certified installer to get your gas line set up before proceeding.
