Gardens
An Urban Retreat An enclosed garden was created in the front of the house that simultaneously welcomes the neighbors, creates views from the interior and yet provides screening for the owners’ privacy. A traditional southern palette of boxwoods, camellias, cherries and Little Gem magnolias were used to enclose the property from the sidewalk and street creating a more urban than suburban space. Strategic screening in the front with a retaining wall that also acts as a bench is the perfect place for the boys to hang out and wait for their neighborhood friends. There is a small entrance into the front garden that is centered directly on a striking urn planted for year-round interest. The front beds are overflowing with Autumn ferns, foxglove and lenten rose to provide seasonal interest and beauty to the structure.

The low retaining wall in the front garden is a wonderful place to sit and catch up with neighbors. The camellias just beyond provide privacy and will be covered with flowers each fall.
