Sugar Kettle Prairie | Millbrook IL
Part Craftsman, part pollinator garden and part rural charm, this landscape features an assortment of quality features.
The front has a long, winding driveway with a stellar pollinator garden on both sides of the drive and the client states, "You can smell the essence of the space even before it starts blooming in late spring. It wows me any time I walk through it."
The immediate front shifts gears from the designated pollinators into a lively but more traditional approach with a large sugar kettle fountain centered on the front door. A bluestone terrace and porch seamlessly blend with the architecture.
The back is a much more relaxed space featuring two fire pits, masonry cobble walls and a custom cedar kitchen with more bluestone on two levels. The grill gets a routine workout 3-4 days a week and the dogs have a large fenced space to unwind with "mom & dad".
The client smilingly offered their thoughts on the landscape with, "It's not just a landscape. It's a Sugar Kettle experience!"
