These homeowners bought their large home in the brand new- development largely because it looked out over a pastoral preserve that can never be developed. But the foreground was nothing but an elevated screen porch on spindly posts and an expansive, flat lawn. They tasked this NARI member contractor to create an outdoor environment that could accommodate frequent 20- to 30-person events and extend the home’s lower level entertainment space outdoors. It needed to reflect their favorite travel destination, Tuscany, but fit the home’s modern farmhouse architecture. They credit the team with nailing the design and working into winter to have the magnificent space ready for 2019.
