Coastal Cottage
WAYZATA, MN

“The landscape is simply gorgeous and tranquil”
This redesigned front and backyard has transformed into the homeowners own “private oasis”. Often gathering with friends to relax and unwind while her son is in the backyard able to practice lacrosse for hours on end.

Behind the Design
Design Notes
The Brief
A front and backyard in Wayzata that could be two things at once: the homeowner’s own private oasis for gathering with friends — and a yard where her son could practice lacrosse for hours on end.
The Result
A redesigned landscape the homeowner calls “simply gorgeous and tranquil” — charming enough that garden writers came touring, cottage garden and all.
The Brief
- —A private oasis for relaxing and entertaining
- —Front and backyard redesigned as one composition
- —Room left for a kid to actually use the yard
01
Two yards, one story
Front and backyard were redesigned together, so the cottage charm reads continuously from the street to the garden.
02
Beauty that hosts
The garden setting is built for gathering — tranquil to sit in, generous enough for friends, durable enough for lacrosse practice beside it.
