Built as an island necessity on the back patio, this mahogany shower offers a practical space to rinse off after a day on the beach.

For style and convenience, the outdoor shower is located to one side of the patio and blends seemlessly with the Cape Cod home.

The outdoor space wouldn’t be complete without a spot for a four legged family member; therefore the HGTV Doggy Dream Home was built in the same Cape Cod style with creatively designed food and water window boxes.

“This is a physically active island and there are lots of people out, so this outdoor shower is great, not only for the beach but just to be outside,” says interior designer Linda Woodrum.
