Project story

The design.

The pool and spa sit within a broad paved terrace. Curving stone walls divide this Upper Valley yard into smaller areas, with steps and paths connecting the water, putting green, and basketball court.

The putting green wraps around a stone water feature, while the court has its own hoop and painted playing surface. Raised planters, retaining walls, and landscape lighting frame the activity areas. Drip irrigation and natural stone were also part of the project scope.
