This full landscaping project started from scratch and included both design and installation for the front and back yards. Eight months of work was dedicated to transforming 5 acres of overgrown, unloved scrub. The sloping ground on the property required unique attention to create a functional, beautiful design.

The highest standards were maintained in designing the formal prestige gardens, including an extreme level of attention to the smallest details. Features include:
- Installation of water features of varying types
- Planting of hundreds of trees and shrubs
- Mass excavation of hundreds of tons of material
- Excavated material was relocated and removed from the property
- Sourcing and placement of hundreds of tons of new material
- Installation of automated irrigation system
- Laying of travertine paving
- Design and building of sandstone retaining walls and sandstone planter boxes
- Placement of 5 acres of new turf
Additionally, recreational facilities were installed, including a tennis court, putting greens, and a jogging track on the property.
