SAVE THE DATE PRO PROJECT

Wide appeal in narrow space

Project by Unique Environmental Landscapes

GALA AWARD WINNER: Grand

This small in-town yard (a little over 2000 ft.) did nothing for the homeowner as far as usability and entertainment. The backyard and side yard are both very narrow, with about 14 feet from the foundation of the house to the property line.

Before

Maximizing the space and creating an entertainment area was the overall objective of this project, which meant incorporating a small fireplace and grill area as requested by the homeowner.

Before

Before A very small concrete back patio beneath the deck with the rest of the yard sloping away or uphill made it unusable space. There was a 2 ½ foot drop from the existing upper patio to the lower backyard.

The water feature was reincorporated and radius steps now flow off the back patio onto the lower space. A small fire pit was added in the back corner. We adjusted for the grade changes and pulled the spaces together.
