Many homeowners view their landscaping projects through the lens of potential financial returns, in the event that these improvements might boost the value of the entire property. Which is all well and good, but that often means that the front lawn gets all the attention, to the minimizing of other parts of the landscape.

Why not look at your prospective Main Line landscape design as a way to boost the personal value and function of your property? Like your backyard?

Here are a few elements to consider when thinking of ways to spruce up your backyard living space.

• Terrace – Something is so luxurious and palatial about the texture and beauty that terraces can infuse into lawns. Their sweep gives grass more “character” and also sets the stage for areas where beautiful plants can wield their charms and enchant on the varying levels for a richer tapestry in your Main Line landscape design.

There are so many ways to incorporate this rejuvenating element into your lawn or garden – from tabletop fountains to ponds to sunken gardens to elaborate, cascading pools.

• Structure – A tasteful outbuilding can offer a great deal of beauty and interest and personality to the entire landscape. This structural focal point might come in the form of an optimistic little greenhouse for a “green thumb” or a gazebo where one might sneak away to enjoy some reading or quiet moments.
