A Backyard with Challenges

A North Austin backyard was called unmarketable, so we showed buyers what it could become.

When a real estate agent client came to us for help on a listed property whose backyard was deemed unmarketable, we had to come up with ideas to help buyers see the potential of what it could be.

Protected trees, critical root zones, uneven terrain, and a sloping backyard were just some of the challenges we had to work with on this North Austin project.

It is all about perspective. Instead of thinking of the constraints as a problem, we took them as an opportunity to think outside the box and come up with creative solutions that made the space work.

The result is a unique space that is perfect for entertaining, exchanging stories around a campfire, and taking a refreshing dip in a plunge pool. Now with a backyard like that, who would not want to buy this house?
