This project harmonizes cottage-style charm with thoughtful, modern outdoor design. The front yard features soft, shade-tolerant native plantings that blend seamlessly with the home’s aesthetic, creating a welcoming and lush entrance.

Custom stairs with steel supports and cedar treads provide both function and visual appeal, leading to a backyard oasis. A deck wraps elegantly around the pool, concealing the retractable pool cover system while maintaining a seamless flow. Limestone pavers guide visitors to a storage container office, offering a unique and functional addition to the space.

Low-maintenance artificial turf, bordered by steel retaining walls, forms a practical lawn that preserves the site’s existing trees by protecting critical root zones. Small planting pockets throughout the yard add movement and interest while reducing pool debris, ensuring a balance of beauty and practicality.
