Hudson Valley Idyll

by Johnsen Landscapes & Pools
Celebrating the summer in style!
This landscape comes complete with a breathtaking view of the Hudson River.
We answered the clients’ request for an elegant but simple swimming pool that took advantage of the sweeping view. We did this by aligning the new pool with the course of the river.
Deer resistant ornamental grasses and a Robert Sindorf sculpture hold honored spots. The understated refinement of the overall design highlights the materials and details of the plan. The result is an artful serenity that takes its cue from the surrounding environment.
We also extended the usable area next to the house by creating an ‘outdoor lawn room’ of sorts. The space appears as an integral part of the house, seamlessly bringing it out into the garden.
Additional touches include our custom wood supports for a cherished apple tree, a hidden path through a secret garden, outdoor lighting that creates a luminous effect at night and a blue flowering, deer resistant perennial border.

Although it appears very simple, this took a lot of planning and work to get just right. The outdoor lighting in this Westchester County haven is ethereally beautiful too!

First we created the level space with stone walls, then we added the drainage, lighting, plants and more....This Westchester, NY landscape is delightful - and deer resistant too!

Serenity rulles here...clean lines, low wall, green with a dash of turquoise...and what you don't see - a spectacular view from that outdoor couch.

A hidden walk in a Westchester garden leading down to the swimming pool gate...deer resistant plants here. The idea is to make it appear as if it were always here....
