Cottage Garden Courtyard

The cottage garden courtyard ties the orginal home to the addition and has an intimate scale. Partially hidden from the street below, it creates intrigue—only the stone wall, gate, and a few plants can be seen. As you approach the front door, the 22½- by 27-foot space comes into view as a garden within the larger landscape.
