Definitely stick with the firepit. It's a modular design and located adjacent to the lawn area, so it's easily converted to more turf should you start (or sell to) a family in a few years.

Do you have natural gas to the house? If you do, then I would recommend keeping the fire pit and augmenting it with outdoor natural gas heat lamps. Not the best picture I could find but here is one. Had a couple of these at a house I used to own in Franklin and it kept us on the patio 10 months a year.
I would also get gas to the firepit and some permanent logs. Not quite so cool as wood, but when you can flip a switch and its on, then you will use it a lot more.
A few of those heat lamps and a gas fire pit and I bet you will be on the patio for dinner most clear nights.
Still...like everyone says...do what YOU want. I don't have to live with it!

No, I am not flipping it. I built this home to my spec and moved in a year and a half ago. Since then the Calgary market has been so strong that it has gone up 6-7% in value. I know this as a colleague is building the same house in the same area today.Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View Post

The lot is 11m/36ft wide total, largest possible given the zoning laws the city has in place to increase density.Originally posted by -Jrabbit View Post

If you want a firepit then get one that you can store in your garage / shed when you're not using it

Briefly considered natural gas - my parents had a gas firepit. I'm sticking with the real wood one because we have two gas fireplaces in the house already, so for convenience we have that. I love the crackle and smell of a wood fire though, so I'm sticking with that.Originally posted by PLATO View PostDo you have natural gas to the house?

Fair point.Originally posted by MichaeltheGreat View PostWould you take non-financial advice from him?
Been with my partner for 10 years now, and we are very happy together. So personal advice is out, too.
Plus I'm pretty sure that both of us, individually, earn many times what he does. So financial is out, naturally."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
