Levelling this back yard - stepped into the mountainside - to optimize usable land & create elegant outdoor living spaces was challenging but ultimately successful and rewarding.
Behind-the-scenes retaining walls created the structural backbone to support a new stone paver patio & lawn space area, with hot tub views under cover of the upper deck. Divided by a custom central pergola, a raised cedar planter box-style vegetable garden "grow zone" with greenhouse leads to a potting shed/man cave at the bottom of the garden, with the addition of a contemplative bench to survey the gardener's handiwork. The lowest level of the back yard hosts a dedicated sports court created for hockey-loving pre-teens, and the property has extensive irrigation, drainage and accent lighting.
