@matigo that's the idea behind this space. It has a gas fireplace to keep warm when it's 5C and raining outside. A ceiling fan will keep it cool in the summer.
Tonight we verified our new gas grill we bought will fit in the space made for it. Because, you know, trust but verify.
In addition to finishing up the masonry, electrical and painting still needs to be done. And we need to acquire some granite for the countertop around where the grill will go. But it's definitely starting to take shape.
