Linear Fire Features in Nocatee, FL

A ribbon of flame for your Nocatee outdoor room, designed in AutoCAD with the seating around it.

A long line of fire reads cleaner than a traditional firebox and fits a wide wall or a bench. We design linear fire features for Nocatee homes in AutoCAD, so the length, the finish and the seating all work together.

NFPA advises never adding lighter fluid or any other flammable liquid to a fire that's already burning.

Designing a linear fire feature for Nocatee

Preserve, pond and lake lots are common across Nocatee, and many designs keep that view open. Golf carts and trails connect Nocatee's neighborhoods, so many homeowners want an easy path from the patio to the side yard. On newer homes, the fire area usually comes with a patio extension, so the seating and fire are designed together.

A linear fire pit between benches works best when the benches sit at a comfortable distance from the flame. Before we draw a linear fire feature in Nocatee, we check the length that suits the seating, the view from the main seats and how the wall finish meets the patio.

Before leaving a fire, NFPA advises dousing it with water and making sure the area is cool to the touch.

Approvals and Permits in Nocatee

Every Nocatee neighborhood reviews exterior changes, so plan on HOA approval for almost any backyard structure. Review boards usually look at fire feature placement and the finishes on the wall. Confirm current guidelines with your association.

Building permits for Nocatee homes go through St. Johns County, and registered associations are notified automatically when exterior work is filed, so your HOA is part of the process from the start. Every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.

Will my Nocatee HOA review a linear fire feature?In most cases, yes.
