5. Rustic outdoor kitchen<\/h2>\n

This creation at a coastal Cornwall home uses reclaimed wood and concrete surfaces to give off a mix of rustic country kitchen and industrial chic vibes.\u00a0While outdoor fridges and wine coolers are fairly common appliances, it\u2019s also possible to buy electric hobs and ovens for exterior use. Whatever you choose, ensure the model is specially designed for installing outside. You’ll also need to extend a power supply from your home to your garden.<\/p>\n
