Where the Best Evenings Happen.
Outdoor Living, Elevated.
Hunter's Lawn & Landscaping designs and builds outdoor living spaces across Kannapolis — outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, fire pits, pergolas, and covered patios built for both historic mill-village lots and the city's newer downtown residential construction.
No Shortcuts. No Compromises.
Kannapolis carries two very different outdoor living profiles. Its historic mill-village neighborhoods — built around the old Cannon Mills — tend to have smaller, established lots where a new outdoor kitchen or fireplace has to work around mature trees and older grading. Its newer downtown residential construction, part of the city's ongoing revitalization near the North Carolina Research Campus, is the opposite: bare lots ready for a complete outdoor living space designed from scratch. Hunter's Lawn & Landscaping has over 20 years of experience building for both.
A great outdoor living space changes how you use your home. An outdoor kitchen, a fireplace that pulls people in on a cool evening, a covered patio that makes the yard usable in any weather — these are the features that get used every week for decades. Hunter's approaches every outdoor living project as one integrated design, so the kitchen, fireplace, hardscape, and structure all work together rather than looking added-on.
We serve Kannapolis, Concord, and the surrounding Cabarrus County communities across the greater Charlotte region. Every estimate is free. Every project is personally led by Hunter on-site.

What We Build
Hunter's Lawn & Landscaping builds a full range of outdoor living spaces in Kannapolis NC — every feature personally designed and installed by Hunter, integrated into one cohesive space rather than assembled from disconnected parts.
Hunter's designs and builds custom outdoor kitchens throughout Kannapolis — from compact builds fitted into established mill-village lots to full kitchens designed from the ground up for newer downtown residential construction near the NC Research Campus.
Outdoor kitchens are built on solid masonry or steel-frame construction with weatherproof surfaces, proper utility runs for gas and water, and finishes that match your home and hardscape — not a prefab box dropped onto the patio.
Bars & serving areas extend the kitchen into a true entertaining space, with seating ledges and counter space designed around how you actually host.
Nothing anchors an outdoor living space like fire. Hunter's builds custom outdoor fireplaces and fire pits across Kannapolis, sized to fit older, established lots in the historic mill-village neighborhoods or planned as a centerpiece for a brand-new downtown backyard.
Outdoor fireplaces are built as true masonry structures — a architectural focal point with proper firebox construction, flue, and stone or brick finish that ties into your patio and home.
Fire pits range from built-in gas to wood-burning stone pits with surrounding seating walls — designed as part of the space, not dropped in afterward. Every build follows safe clearances and Cabarrus County requirements.
Shade and shelter are what make an outdoor living space usable all season. Hunter's builds pergolas, pavilions, and covered patio structures across Kannapolis — a category especially valuable on newer downtown lots that need shade and definition a builder never provided.
Pergolas add structure, partial shade, and a sense of enclosure — built from cedar, hardwood, or low-maintenance materials and anchored to last through Cabarrus County weather.
Pavilions & covered patios provide full weather protection, letting you keep an outdoor kitchen or seating area in use even in rain or peak heat.
Every outdoor living space sits on a patio, and Hunter's builds the whole room as one design in Kannapolis — whether that means working carefully around an older mill-village lot's existing grade, or laying out a complete new patio, kitchen, and fire feature on a bare downtown lot.
Building the patio and the living features as one project is what separates a true outdoor room from a collection of add-ons. Hunter's handles the full build — base, hardscape, masonry, utilities, and structure — as a single accountable installation.
What Goes Into the Space
A complete outdoor living space in Kannapolis NC pulls several features into one cohesive room. Hunter's designs each one as part of a single plan, whether the lot is an established mill-village property or a newer downtown build.
Built-in grill, counters, storage, and bar seating — the anchor of most outdoor living spaces, engineered for weather and built into the design.
A masonry fireplace or custom fire pit — the focal point that extends your evenings and your season and pulls the whole space together.
Pergola, pavilion, or covered patio — defining the room, providing relief from the NC sun, and making the space usable in any weather.
Stone or paver patio sized for the full space — the foundation every other feature is built on, set on a proper compacted base.
Built-in seating walls and benches that define the space, add capacity for hosting, and tie the fire feature and patio together.
Landscape lighting, gas, water, and power runs designed in from the start — so the space works after dark and every feature has what it needs.

How We Work
Every outdoor living project in Kannapolis NC follows the same deliberate process — because the spaces that get used for decades are the ones designed as a whole, whether the lot is a century-old mill-village property or a brand-new downtown build.
Hunter visits your property, learns how you want to use the space and how you entertain, and evaluates grade, drainage, and utility access — so the design fits both the site and your life.
Hunter designs the full space — kitchen, fire feature, structure, patio, and seating as one composition — and walks you through materials and finishes so you can see the whole room before the build begins.
Hunter leads the full build on-site — patio base, masonry, utilities, structure, and finishes — handling every trade so the kitchen, fire feature, and shade all come together as one seamless space.
Hunter personally walks the finished space with you — reviewing every feature, how the utilities and fire elements operate, and care instructions. We don't leave until you're completely satisfied.

About Hunter's Outdoor Living
Hunter's Lawn & Landscaping is a luxury outdoor living builder based in Concord, NC — founded and personally led by Hunter with over 20 years of experience across Cabarrus and Mecklenburg Counties. Every outdoor living project is led by Hunter on-site, from the first design conversation through final walkthrough.
In over two decades of building outdoor spaces across Cabarrus County, Hunter has learned that Kannapolis rewards a builder who can work both ends of the spectrum — respecting an established mill-village lot's character, or designing a complete space from a blank downtown canvas. Hunter's was built as the alternative to add-on-by-add-on contracting — one accountable builder who designs the full room and delivers a space still in heavy use 25 years later.
Local Insights
Kannapolis homeowners in the historic mill-village neighborhoods usually start with a fireplace or patio sized to fit an established lot, while downtown revitalization buyers are typically planning a complete space from scratch.
The most common question is whether a builder can work around an older lot's mature trees and grading — or, for newer downtown lots, how to plan a full outdoor living space with no existing landscaping to build from.
Kannapolis clients choose Hunter's Lawn & Landscaping for a builder who treats an established mill-village property with the same care as a from-scratch downtown build — with Hunter personally overseeing every project start to finish.
