Highland Victorian

Set in a quiet Boston suburb, this landscape was designed to create a strong connection between the residence and its surrounding garden spaces. A continuous terrace wraps the home, unfolding into a series of distinct outdoor rooms designed for dining, gathering, and entertaining.

Robust plantings frame the terrace, softening the architecture and guiding views across the backyard. Beyond, a sunken garden offers a sense of enclosure and calm, with its layout oriented toward a tranquil fountain wall. A built-in fire pit anchors one of the outdoor rooms, providing a welcoming focal point for evening gatherings. Together, these elements create a seamless blend of open and intimate spaces, tailored for everyday living.
