This charming A-frame house is an escape from the city for a young family with children who love to spend time together outdoors. A clarified arrival sequence orients visitors to the front door, while plantings of native grasses establish a beachy, relaxed feel upon arrival to the property.
In the backyard, a new bi-level deck provides a place for grilling right outside their kitchen, while broad stairs lead to a lower main deck area which is set within a garden. Zoning and setback requirements left the pool placed at an oblique angle to the house; a clever custom paving pattern resolves the angles while creating a comfortable connection to the pool from the home.
