Elegant Outdoor Fireplaces

---

Enjoy the warmth and ambiance a stone, brick or concrete fireplace provides for you and your loved ones.

Transform your exterior living area with a wood-burning or gas-burning fireplace. Fireplaces can  be installed as a stand alone or incorporated with patio’s, and pavilions. A custom-constructed fireplace can transform your exterior living area into a four-season gathering place for family and friends. Outdoor fireplaces — or fire pits, which you can read more about here — act as focal points for any landscape.

Whether you want wood-burning or a gas-burning option for ease of turning on and off, a fireplace will add luxury and sophistication to your home. The added warmth on a cool St. Louis autumn evening is a great perk, too. Some other key benefits of an outdoor fireplace include:

• Year-round warmth
• Central gathering hub
• Entertaining space
• Added property value
• Ambiance
• Improved aesthetics
• Keeps bugs away
• Potential for cooking

Elegant Outdoor Fireplaces

You have a variety of options at your disposal when it comes to selecting which high-quality materials you want Xceptional Hardscapes to use to build your fireplace. Some popular options include:

• Concrete
• Brick
• Stone
• Stucco

With many of these options, a variety of textures, colors and patterns can help make your fireplace really stand out. Stack stone symmetrically for a clean and modular look, or use flagstaff or cultured stone for a rustic appearance. The brownish-red color of bricks provides an earthy feel, or whitewash that brick for a classic finish that provides a great contrast to the vibrant color of flames.

A smoothly finished concrete fireplace can help tie in your paver patio, while a stucco fireplace gives off a Mediterranean vibe. Consider the inclusion of a floating wood mantle above your fireplace that holds vases, sculptures, framed artwork, lanterns or plants. And perhaps a mounted television above that completes the ensemble of a great hangout area.

Bring Warmth to Your Outdoor Space with Custom Fireplaces

Extend your outdoor living season with the addition of an Xceptional Hardscapes fireplace. A screened-in porch or covered patio coupled with an outdoor fireplace results in more time spent outside enjoying your beautiful landscape. Perhaps a fire dining table in which the flames are flanked by a glass-wall surrounding means more meals enjoyed outside.

Our custom-built fireplaces have the capability of putting off some major heat to keep your family cozy throughout the year. We vow to go above and beyond in the design and installation of your dream fireplace, with full customer satisfaction our top priority.

Functional and Stylish Structures Tailored to Your Needs

As you weigh what type of exterior fireplace to select, consider your architectural surroundings and personal aesthetic preferences. The flooring, lighting, furnishings, landscaping and roofing near your fireplace can help you decide what style to shoot for.

A fireplace is a great focal point, and you can make yours stand out even further by changing up the size and shape of the chimney. Modular, sharply angled and curved chimney lines can each be incorporated into your fireplace design. Your firebox can be inserted into a wall for a floating effect, or maybe you’d like a hearth at its base. For wood-burning selections, a nearby log storage area is a logical and aesthetically pleasing fit.

At Xceptional Hardscapes, we’ll guide you through your options and listen to your vision for a warm and inviting space. We’re excited to work with you on your outdoor fireplace project.
