Sam and Judy Bozzo purchased the 1931 home on a tree-lined street in 1976. The driveway came down one side of the house, circled the back yard and entered the garage from the backyard. Over the years the garage became part of the house so the long driveway was gone. The hole left by a fallen tree became a swimming pool. Other trees and hedges grew and offered quiet havens. An isolated side patio became a quiet early morning coffee spot. Raised gardens in the very back grew fruits and vegetables. All the way back a bocce ball court sprouted. Son, Greg Bozzo, Landscape Innovations, pulled it all together. The final backyard is full of little get-away spots, each one a little different but all comfortable and inviting.
