Today, fire pits are one of the hottest requested design features according to the 2016 Residential Landscape Architecture Trends Survey. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we know there are important safety tips to be aware of so you stay safe while enjoying it. Never burn pressurized wood. It may contain toxins that release noxious fumes when burned. Don’t use kerosene or gasoline to light your fire. Go old school and stick with kindling. It’s much safer. Never build a fire pit with smooth river rocks. While aesthetically pleasing, they can heat rapidly and explode. Lining your pit with rough stones is a much safer choice. Make sure to place your pit at least 10 feet away from any structures, fencing or other flammable material. Check out below to see what sold in Bellagio in August 2016:
