We built a gazebo type structure to provide a nice shady sitting area next to the pool. It comes complete with a native stone floor, lights and a ceiling fan. The Belgard cobblestone pavers were already here but had settled and needed re-leveled. Now they look great again and contrast to the concrete around the pool.

An evergreen backdrop provides privacy from neighbors, while a mix of deciduous trees and shrubs provides interesting heights and textures. A mix of perennials was recently planted for fall, winter, and early spring interest, as well as to help keep the ground covered and reduce weed pressure.

The lap pool at the edge of the property and the trails throughout the property provide every-day enjoyment. as well as fire breaks throughout the space. The trail and wood-alternative decking also provide safe space for fire fighters to work.

Wellborn + Wright has teamed up with Richmond native Cobblestone Development Group again for this incredible renovation. What was originally a constricting, one story brick ranch house from the mid 20th century is now a bright, soaring, three story home with a much more open and inviting floor plan. Be sure to flip through the slideshow above to the last 3 pictures which show the “before and after” versions of the kitchen and entryway. Wellborn + Wright was happy to provide the smooth surface box beams that ran along the ceiling and “sectioned off” the individual living spaces on the first floor – kitchen, living room, dining room – without actually dividing the space itself. A mantle (not shown) and kitchen island counter top made from reclaimed white oak can be found in the kitchen and living room respectively. It should be noted that, while W+ didn’t provide the flooring for this project, what you see here is an exact match to our South Hampton oak flooring – so if you like what you see on the floors just as much as the ceiling, we can definitely help you there!

Poured concrete containers are softened with drought tolerant grasses and ground covers. Horizontally slatted redwood fencing provides privacy for the side patio, as well as obscuring the refuse area.
