Hillside Marvel

This beautiful house lacks a useful backyard. Instead, there is a steep, heavily wooded drop-off. The family would like an accessible area--and a pool--they can enjoy. A pool would add extra surface area to the yard and serve as a beautiful place to entertain outside. Graham Pittman, of E. Graham Pittman and Associates, Inc., designed a plan for this yard that will meet the challenge of the steep, wooded slope.
