The generous patio area off the kitchen walkout is divided into two levels with the custom vinyl over steel walk-in steps for the pool conveniently located in the corner. The stamped concrete of the patio features a pleasing pattern of random rectangular saw cuts. For contrast, the cuts on the upper level are set on the diagonal.

In the world of luxury living it's all about location, and this spectacular Kleinburg estate home has a grand one, exquisitely located at the end of a secluded lane. The highlight of the backyard is a large dry Gunite infinity pool with visual zero edge. (19 x 49, custom rectangular)

Rectangular pool and water wall backdrop of quartzite stone capped with limestone. Featuring a waterfall, integrated spa to conserve space, quartzite stone patio, quartzite stone slab steps, fine plantings of dynamic seasonal flowing color including privacy screen plantings, grading and drainage including installation of seepage tank, bocce court and newly sodded lawn complete this exciting project!

For this project the house itself and the garage are the only original features on the property. In the front yard we created massive curb appeal by adding a new brick driveway, framed by lighted brick columns, with an offset parking space. A brick retaining wall and walkway lead visitors to the front door, while a low brick wall and crisp white pergola enhance a previous underutilized patio. Landscaping, sod, and lighting frame the house without distracting from its character. In the back yard the driveway leads to an updated garage which received a new brick floor and air conditioning. The back of the house changed drastically with the seamless addition of a covered patio framed on one side by a trellis with inset stained glass opposite a brick fireplace. The live-edge cypress mantel provides the perfect place for decor. The travertine patio steps down to a rectangular pool, which features a swim jet and linear glass waterline tile. Again, the space includes all new landscaping, sod, and lighting to extend enjoyment of the space after dusk. Photo by Craig O'Neal
