outdoor connectivity
A private yard flaunts a spacious patio, hot tub and a hot and cold exterior spigot for dog washing at the back door. Raised garden beds provide plenty of space for plants while Bevelo gas lights from New Orleans add timeless flair. Salvaged from another property, a wrought iron fence has been installed in combination with a brick wall to be consistent with the original. The entire brick exterior has been cleaned by hand, tuckpointed and sealed with a premium matte sealer to help maintain the longevity of the brick, protecting it from water, humidity and preventing shedding. Garage architectural plans have been rendered and are included for convenience.
