South Hill Craftsman
After remodeling their 1905 Craftsman house, the homeowners were ready to tackle the yard. The front was easily spruced up with a new walkway and plantings, but the steep, wooded backyard was a much bigger challenge. Rebuilding a failing retaining wall was the first step to creating access to the previously overgrown space. A custom gate echoes a motif from inside the house. Concrete patios with natural stone steps provide space for a hot tub and fire pit, completely transforming the dangerous eyesore.
