Latan Cox loves entertaining guests in her home. However, her tired old deck did not offer adequate space or functionality. She wanted to create a space that would allow for outdoor entertaining year-round. Her nextdoor neighbor was going through an extensive remodeling project that seemed to be going well, so Latan talked to the remodeler... Jim Evatt from Palmetto Construction & Renovations. 

The project consisted of removing the existing deck and adding a covered patio with vaulted ceilings, can lighting, and a tongue & groove ceiling. A new door was added to allow guests to move more freely from the main house. Also added were cypress cabinets, granite countertops, a bar sink, and an ice maker - perfect for serving food and drinks during gatherings. Finally, a brick fireplace was added with a rough-sawn mantle to allow for year-round enjoyment.

What a great place to entertain!
