Setting up Your Terrace for the Summer Season: 5 Good Tips
Here we are already in mid-July, a time when the desire to enjoy the outdoors and create a welcoming outdoor space is stronger than ever. For property sellers and buyers, designing a terrace can be a major asset, positively influencing the appeal and value of a home. Our real estate agents in Montreal offer you 5 insightful tips to optimize this space and turn it into a true relaxation haven.
1. CONSIDERING BUILT-IN FURNITURE

For those with limited space, built-in furniture is an excellent option to maximize available space effectively. Consider installing a bench along one side of your terrace, complete with comfortable cushions and storage space beneath the seats.
2.DO NOT OVERLOOK THE ACCESSORIES

Accessories play a crucial role. Outdoor rugs can delineate distinct areas and add a decorative touch. Consider lanterns, flower pots, candles, or string lights to create a warm ambiance during summer evenings.
3. CREATE DIFFERENT SPACES
Divide your terrace into functional zones to meet different needs. Create a dining area with a table and comfortable chairs for outdoor meals. A seating area with armchairs and a coffee table can be perfect for relaxation and socializing.
4. ILLUMINATE YOUR TERRACE

Outdoor lighting is essential for extending the use of your terrace into late evenings. Choose from a variety of fixtures such as wall sconces, floor lamps, hanging lanterns, or string lights.
5. CREATE SHADED AREAS

If your terrace is not naturally shaded by mature trees, create shaded areas to protect yourself from intense sunlight. Pergolas with climbing plants or adjustable umbrellas are attractive options to create these comfortable spaces.
Finally, we hope these tips will help you create a welcoming and functional summer terrace, perfect for enjoying the outdoor season in Montreal !
