What Shapes an outdoor fireplace in Brookwood

Because Brookwood is in Duval County, building permits come from the City of Jacksonville, not St. Johns County. Many Brookwood homes came with a covered lanai that's ready for an extension, a screen or a summer kitchen. Facing the water, the fire area is often placed at the edge of the patio so the view is part of the evening.

A fireplace needs room around it. We plan clearances to the roof, walls and furniture before choosing the size. Before we draw an outdoor fireplace in Brookwood, we check gas or wood-burning, whether a TV goes above and where the seating faces.

Approvals and Permits in Brookwood

Brookwood's association expects a full package before work starts, even though the permit comes from a different office than most of Nocatee. For an outdoor fireplace, review boards usually want the height, the finish and the location on the lot. Confirm current guidelines with your association.

In Brookwood, we file with the City of Jacksonville through JaxEPICS, record the Notice of Commencement for most permitted projects and schedule the inspections through final. Every permitted structure gets its necessary engineered documents.

What finishes can an outdoor fireplace have?Stone, stucco or a clean linear look. Amany helps you choose a finish that matches the house.

Can a fireplace go inside a screen room?Yes, with the right design. A screened room with a fireplace is usable more nights of the year.

Is Brookwood still being built?No. Nocatee lists Brookwood as sold out, so projects here update existing homes and lanais.
