Our 2012 Grand Award winning project in Great Falls, Virginia.

For this job, the client wanted change his dull backyard into a place that was brighter and more inviting. To achieve this, we created a flowing pathway that lead from the driveway to the pool, built an outdoor room that included a massive fireplace and plenty of screened windows to look out, and an outdoor grilling area with granite counter top.

At the driveway, we built a grand entrance with large stone columns and a custom wrought iron fence that spanned between them. Going through the custom iron gate, you are lead down a limestone cobble walkway flanked on either side by single stem crepe myrtle trees. As you move along the walkway you come to a circle with a small wall before turning left to see the new pool environment. On the left you pass by the outdoor grilling area and the entrance to the custom outdoor room. On the right a second curved wall draws you attention to the pool, where the pool deck has been replaced with limestone pavers and a small wall was added to create a second seating area across from the enhanced arbor. A staircase was also installed to the left of the house leading from the basement door to the pool deck.

As you move back through the site toward the outdoor room, it is hard to not be impressed by the massive fireplace that is the main focal point of the structure. once you move inside you will notice that the interior is just as impressive as the exterior with the limestone paver floor, custom ceiling and detail work that shows up on every part of this structure. A custom designed shed was also installed at one end of the property to help create another point of interest in the landscape.
