Side Garden with Parking Spot
The client originally wanted a garden on the side of the house, but city code required that a 400 square-foot parking space be available behind the fence. To meet regulations and give the client the green space they desired, a brilliant solution was implemented.
Two concrete parking strips were installed, and then flagstone pads were installed over the strips. The rest was covered and filled in with soil and plantings that can be driven over were placed in-between and around each of the pads.
A swinging gate was installed, but with a pedestrian gate built in the middle so that the entire gate needn’t be opened for foot traffic. The garden area was then enclosed with another iron pedestrian gate leading to the remodeled pool and back patio.
All landscape plantings were picked and installed as well.
