Homewood - Heritage Neighborhood

Libertyville

An existing maintenance client looking to improve the landscape conditions under a group of Nortway Maple trees shading the back yard.  JMR designed a functional and expanded living space that was otherwise an unusable and muddy part of the garden.  Clients now have several rooms to choose from to relax in and entertain. Adding on to and existing bluestone porch and dining patio, a custom outdoor kitchen, a hot tub landing, and a lower circular patio with firepit.  

The custom radial cut bluestone treads and steps were designed to gently blend into the sloped back lawn for a seamless transition.  Great care and research was taken to match the brick colors to the existing brick on the homes exterior.
