Outdoor Oasis: Elevated Backyard Gathering Space

From: Mom's Landscaping & Design

Perched high on a hill, this backyard overlooks acres of woodland. To help the owners enjoy the view, the landscape designers outfitted the space with an outdoor kitchen, dining set, fireplace, porch swing and even a putting green. In turn, the yard becomes a gathering space for the whole family.
