Interior courtyards are a popular design element as they create added gathering space and can be designed to the homeowners’ particular desires.  Many are designed with lush landscaped areas, sitting areas, water features and fireplaces.  Others serve as outdoor kitchens complete with grills, deep fryers, pizza ovens, refrigerators and complete dining facilities.  Since the interior courtyards are typically surrounded by the exterior of the home within gated areas, they provide privacy from the outide world.

Many interior courtyards feature versatile covered areas, adjacent to the home, with sliding walls or glass walls, bringing the two areas together even more.  An added benefit of an interior courtyard is that when it is surrounded by glass walls, it enables an abundance of light to flow through the home.
