The landscaping around this historic farmhouse was unsophisticated and dated. The owners wanted spaces to entertain large groups, as well as cozy outdoor rooms for more intimate gatherings. Inspired by their European travels, the homeowners were looking for old world touches to be integrated into the existing surroundings.

Fire and water elements created a series of living spaces that fit their lifestyle. Guests can stroll along walkways made with a rich variety of materials and feel like they are walking in a European town. They will pass lush perennials beds, iron gates and swaths of red rose bushes.

A swimming pool, reflecting pond, and oversize fireplace covered with tumbling trumpet vines all bring beauty and function to this homeowner.
