In the Upper Beach area, a contemporary architectural home faced challenges with a front asphalt "parking lot" causing basement flooding due to its slope toward the house.
The new design focused on using solid precast concrete blocks to raise the front yard, creating an appealing basement walkout area near the house. Steel staircases now lead to both the second-story front door and the basement walkout entry.
A striking walkway features dark flagstone amidst interlocking brick paving, while strategically planted tall Beech trees serve as a natural screen, shielding the view of a rundown neighbouring property. Ornamental grasses and boxwood hedges were artfully added to complement the home's modern style.
