This Hollywood Fairytail house had been lovingly restored, all but the garden! We demolished everything in the front garden and designed a new gracious porch with a checkerboard design in concrete tiles, new low water landscaping with drip irrigation and meandering paths of flagstone, a recirculating fountain and rain garden. Added fruit trees, native and climate appropriate plants and a walkable low water Ruschia area for kids and dogs.

The roof over the existing home was left in place and the new addition was added without having to break into the existing home until the stairway was added at the end of the project. This is a view from the street side of the addition over the older home.

The whole area is on a drip irrigation system with a rain sensor. This is the planted area after 3 months - and in our "winter!"
