The view from the driveway includes a new stone wall with planting beds, the existing pool, and the new pergola and fireplace.
This stone fireplace is complemented by a brick interior in a herringbone pattern. Although new construction, it is designed to carry a comfortable sense of age - as if it has been there for many years.
The select, over-sized timbers used for this pergola provide a proper sense of proposition and stability.
This lion's head accents a stone water feature. The water spouts into a small elevated basin, and then flows over a stone ledge into the larger, lower basin.
This lower garden formerly contained a small outdoor kitchen and a paver patio. To enhance the living space, the hard paver surface was replaced with grass and the stone outdoor grill was converted into a recirculating water feature.
A pergola with distressed stone columns creates a comfortable entertaining space next to the pool. A stone fireplace adds immediate character and allows the space to be used well into the cool season of the year.
A beautiful stone arch creates a doorway to an extensive outdoor living space that includes a pool, stone fireplace, and a play area with a fountain on a lower garden level. The hand-stacked stone and distressed columns for the pergola create instant age, making the new construction immediately comfortable.
