The client wanted a deck to be connected to the rest of the yard and transition to the upper deck 10ft of grade to the patio on grade. The centrally located circular kitchen area services both the patio and the upper deck and gives lots of options whether it’s just the family or a party for 50. Minimizing rails and stairs during the transition from the upper deck to the lower deck on grade was critical to the clients. Adding the kitchen to the project without obstructing the view out the rear patio doors was also an important request from the client. The WOLF PVC Black Walnut accents and fascia really sets off the Driftwood field. Dutch Quality weathered ledge stone was used in the kitchen with a granite counter. Custom welded aluminum rails and EP Henry Bristol pavers are also featured. The built in flower beds extend the feel of the patio area and allow for plantings to be added. This project turned an unusable back yard and disconnected elevated deck into cohesive multi-level living space.

Since most of their backyard would be turned into decking, they felt natural wood (cedar) for both the deck and extensive railings was the way to go. As experts like Bob Vila point out, cedar is a great choice because of its durability; it also resists rot, moisture, as well as insect damage. “It’s also a great choice for the Northeast because of cedar’s ability to adapt to changes in moisture, which is key during freeze-thaw periods,” says Bill Renter. www.besthottubs.com
