— SOPHISTICATED ENTERTAINING IN NEW VERNON, NJ —
FEATURES: PATIOS AND SITTING AREAS, Curb Appeal, OUTDOOR KITCHENS, WALLS AND STEPS, Fire, Walks and Paths, Gardens
A formal landscape design beautifully complements this charming country home. Symmetry creates structure within the gardens, patio, fire pit area, walls, and steps. The formal symmetry beings at the entry, where guests enter between stone pillars along a broad flagstone walkway. The expansive patio offers a view across the landscape to a prominent sculpture and, since the patio is raised above the landscape, gives the feeling of spaciousness. By contrast, the intimate fire pit area, enclosed by a masonry wall and surrounded by taller plants, is a cozy retreat in this big-sky landscape.
