The original house had a small concrete porch at the front of the house enclosed by 3' high concrete plaster walls. The home owners wanted to open up the space so that they could expand their living area into the yard and have more room for entertaining. We removed the concrete plaster walls and built a wood deck flush with the existing porch. Built-in seating replaces a railing to frame the deck. The existing Coral tree was saved as the new deck was built to accommodate the tree's trunk. Poured in-place concrete pavers, new fencing and colorful planting complete the space and gives this home and garden a fresh new look.
