Even in the middle of summer, the garden's full sun foliage, including White Sage (Salvia apiana) and Red Buckwheat (Eriogonum grande var. rubescens) is vibrant, hydrated and blooming.

Patio - contemporary patio idea in Los Angeles

The Billington — a BRAGB PRISM Gold Award winner for Best Attached Home Design. One of Thorndike Development's most popular floor plans, the Billington was a top seller at both Summer Reach and Sawyer's Reach in Plymouth, MA, helping Summer Reach sell out all 112 homes in just 16 months. Now reimagined as The Oak at Alden's Reach, Thorndike's newest Plymouth community, this proven design features a covered side entry, open-plan first-floor living with a den, first-floor primary suite, optional screened porch, and an expandable second level — all with the look and feel of a single-family home, available to buyers of all ages.

Two tufted Brette sofas mirror each other on either side of the fireplace which creates a space that allows easy conversation. These homeowners lit the room with the gorgeous Ava blown glass chandelier and Walthall wall sconces which the homeowner says "absolutely transformed the space".

This modern farmhouse has a balcony on the front and back with deck heaters to stretch out those summer days a bit longer!

I started this garden remodel in the 1970's. It has been both a work project and a personal pleasure to develop this summer property over the years.
