White two-story house with a porch and brick walkway, under a cloudy sky.
A brick walk leads straight to the front porch.

Project story

The design.

A brick walk runs directly to the front porch, while the drive curves through the wider landscape. Low fieldstone walls and planted berms mark the edges of the approach beneath mature trees.

Lawn, grasses, and shrubs give the white house and its wraparound porch a planted setting. A broad paved sitting area continues beneath the covered porch. GO Designs’ landscape work included lighting, irrigation, and grading as well as the brick and stone frontage.
