Landscape Design, Budgeting and Project ManagementSmaller Lot Offers Many Opportunities:
An original Cabbagetown cottage was fully renovated and expended so that the original facade was restored but unchanged. As a result, a traditional landscape befitting of a Victorian garden streetscape was required for the front yard. Simultaneously, a modern approach was needed in the rear yard to make the most of a deep lot with a garage potentially acting as a barrier in the middle.
A custom wrought iron fence and mature trees and boxwood hedging added the classical formal touches for this front landscape. A multi-level deck and steps serviced the garage and new spa with a custom water feature fabricated from Corten steel panels and a traditional design.
A seating area with a custom cedar façade and metal pergola created a secluded dining space, and a flagstone path leads past an outdoor shower to a hidden fire pit area.
