Picture this: a warm evening, the soft crackle of a fire, a glass in hand, and nowhere you'd rather be than your own backyard. That's the promise of a great outdoor fireplace — and it's closer than you think.
At Lux Outdoor Fireplaces, we carry everything from traditional wood-burning masonry fireplaces to modern electric built-ins that work in nearly any outdoor space. Whether you're designing a full outdoor living room or simply adding warmth to an existing patio, there's a fireplace here that was made for your backyard. Here are five ideas to spark your inspiration.
1. The Classic Masonry Look — Pre-Fabricated Wood Burning Fireplace
Nothing says "outdoor living" quite like a real masonry fireplace. The sight of stacked stone or brick, a crackling wood fire, and a proper chimney overhead has a permanence and grandeur that no other style can match. If that's the look you're after, a pre-fabricated wood-burning fireplace gives you all of that authenticity — without the cost and complexity of building from scratch.
The FireRock Pre-Fabricated Outdoor Wood Burning Fireplace is engineered for exactly this. It ships as a modular system you assemble on-site — no mason required — and delivers the look and feel of a full custom masonry fireplace. Available in 30", 36", and 42" opening sizes, it works beautifully as the anchor of an outdoor kitchen or patio living room. Starting at $1,899.

Styling tip: Surround with stacked stone or a stucco finish for a seamless custom look. Pair with deep sectional seating and a weathered wood coffee table for a high-end outdoor room feel.
2. The Tuscan Statement — Arched Masonry Fireplace
If you want your outdoor fireplace to be a true architectural centerpiece, the arched style is hard to beat. The curved opening brings a classic, European warmth to any backyard setting — equally at home in a Tuscan-style courtyard or a modern transitional patio.
The FireRock Pre-Fabricated Arched Outdoor Wood Burning Fireplace takes the same modular convenience of the standard pre-fab and adds the elegance of a full arch opening. The Tuscan-inspired design looks expensive and timeless — because it is. Available in 30", 36", and 42" sizes, starting at $2,149.

Styling tip: This fireplace shines with warm-toned outdoor lighting — think Edison bulb string lights overhead and lanterns flanking each side. Use terracotta pots and Mediterranean plants to complete the aesthetic.
3. The Clean Modern Look — Electric Built-In (Traditional Bespoke)
Not every outdoor space is set up for wood burning — and honestly, not every homeowner wants the maintenance that comes with it. Electric built-in fireplaces have come a long way, and today's best models are genuinely stunning, with realistic flame effects and the convenience of WiFi control from your phone.
The Amantii Traditional Bespoke Built-In Electric Fireplace is one of our most popular choices for covered patios and outdoor living rooms. The clean-face design means no visible surround — just wall-to-wall flame. It's rated for both indoor and outdoor use, and the traditional-style flame looks exceptional at night. Available in sizes from 30" to 48", starting at $2,299.

Styling tip: Recess this fireplace into a built-in outdoor entertainment wall — frame it with stone veneer panels and floating shelves on either side for an outdoor living room that looks like it belongs in an architectural magazine.
4. The Showstopper — Tru View 3-Sided Electric Fireplace
For the outdoor space that's meant to impress, nothing quite matches the drama of a three-sided fireplace. Viewable from multiple angles simultaneously, it becomes the living, flickering centerpiece of any patio or entertaining area — and it works as a divider between seating zones in an open-plan outdoor layout.
The Amantii Tru View Bespoke 3-Sided Built-In Electric Fireplace is extraordinary. With WiFi smart control, built-in Bluetooth speakers, and sizes from 45" up to 85", it's the kind of fireplace that makes guests ask questions. Rated for indoor and outdoor use. Starting at $3,399.

Styling tip: Use this as a visual divider between a dining zone and a lounge zone on a large covered patio. Frame it in a steel or concrete housing and leave all three sides visible. Unforgettable.
5. The Long and Linear — Symmetry Bespoke Linear Electric Fireplace
Wide, low, and effortlessly modern — linear electric fireplaces have become the defining feature of contemporary outdoor living rooms. They pair beautifully with low sectional seating, concrete surfaces, and the kind of clean-lined outdoor furniture that's been dominating design trends for the past few years.
The Amantii Symmetry Bespoke Clean-Face Linear Built-In Electric Fireplace delivers exactly that. Available in sizes from 34" all the way to 74", with WiFi control and the signature Fire & Ice dual-flame effect that sets Amantii apart. This is a Best Seller and a Staff Pick for good reason. Starting at $2,299.

Styling tip: Mount this horizontally above a low concrete or stone hearth bench. Keep the surrounding palette neutral — white, gray, natural wood — and let the fireplace do the talking.
