Outdoor Living in Glen Ellyn
Designed for Glen Ellyn homes and the way you live.
Our Goldman Project in Glen Ellyn started with a leaking pond and became a bluestone patio, natural gas fire feature, wall water feature and moonlight landscape lighting, all placed in direct view of the sunroom. It is a good picture of how we approach Glen Ellyn homes.
Glen Ellyn is full of character, from historic homes near Lake Ellyn and downtown to wooded lots with mature trees and existing landscapes worth keeping. We design to protect what already works and add the outdoor kitchen, lounge, fire and lighting that make the yard part of everyday life.
What we plan for in Glen Ellyn
In established Glen Ellyn yards, the existing landscape is often an asset. We survey trees, grade and existing features first, then design around them instead of starting from a blank slate.
