Rarely observed, this home is found within the grounds of a secluded private gated community. The project involved a restoration to transform a landscape of less interest to an authentic “old world” environment. For those who have traveled the cobblestone roadways, found within European cities, this site would transport them back in time. Beginning with the drive and motor court fashioned of imported Belgium block granite pavers, the authenticity continues with the property’s lavishly designed boxwood hedge gardens, custom wrought iron gates, inviting conversation areas, and a formal “secret garden”. Day or night the flames of several gas copper lanterns flicker to offer a memorable experience or a fond remembrance of a past journey. LANDSCAPE DESIGN / BUILD R. Youngblood & Co.

Craig Bergmann Landscape Design was commissioned by the owner of this historic 1908 estate to develop a fresh, artistic re-interpretation of the existing gardens. An upper and lower garden room and stroll garden were redesigned with the key elements of running water, cool stone and shaded areas to preserve the garden’s original intent. A narrow rill connects two pools where water flows from the Upper Garden down to the Lower. Layering of foliage was as important as coordination of bloom times in order to achieve the sensuous, Moorish feel of the garden. The Stroll Garden plant collection, in contrast to the summer display of the Upper and Lower Gardens, was chosen for a spring flower display moving to a more textural foliage garden in summer.
