SUNSET ROCK RD | ANDOVER, MA
Classic New England materials such as fieldstone, cobblestone and bluestone compliment this extended cape. The combination of evergreen groundcover, boxwoods, and flowering hydrangea provide an elegant entry.
Working on a historically valued home in Andover, it was important to us to elevate the presentation of the front entry in a way that complements the architecture. Originally, the chaotic landscape simply did not do justice for the home, designed by renowned architect, Royal Barry Wills. Simplifying landscape elements aided in transforming a confusing and dysfunctional arrival sequence into one of elegance and clarity.
Thoughtfully orchestrated bluestone walkways create a clear hierarchy of movement between two front doors; subtle bluestone steppers in the lawn lead to the owner’s private entry while a bold bluestone path sweeps through planting beds to guide guests to the main entrance.
