The Wagners are living the all-American suburban dream in the heart of urban Brooklyn, but their backyard is anything but a haven from the surrounding hustle and bustle. For over half a decade, Helayne and Leslie have let their once childrens playground become an overgrown jungle. Host Matt James takes on the challenge of reclaiming the yard for more grown-up pastimes and creates a fantastic getaway using antique paving and reclaimed furniture.
It's a jungle out there
Before: This once tranquil and tidy yard where the kids used to play has become a redundant overgrown mess. Now that they're grown, they no longer use it, and the garden has fallen into disrepair. Finally after five years of looking out on this jungle, parents Helayne and Leslie have called in Matt to reclaim their yard for more grown-up uses. The homeowners want to be able to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and relax at home with their family.For all available product information, click on the After photo.
