Transforming a backyard into a functional, year-round outdoor living space requires thoughtful design, expert craftsmanship, and a deep understanding of the natural landscape. Our latest custom outdoor living project in Groton, MA is a perfect example of how natural stone, native plantings, and creative layout can come together to form a truly breathtaking retreat.

A Custom Outdoor Living Space Designed for Relaxation & Connection

For this project, our clients entrusted us with full creative freedom to design a space that felt immersive, inviting, and connected to the land. The result is a multi-level natural stone garden sanctuary with intimate gathering areas tucked into the landscape.

Highlights of the Design

Hand-crafted granite walkways woven throughout the garden
Multiple cozy seating areas for relaxation, conversation, and outdoor dining
Live-edge stone steps and antique quarry remnants used to transition grade changes naturally
Native plant gardens to support pollinators and maintain ecological balance
Locally sourced granite reclaimed from historic New England hillsides

Each space is thoughtfully connected to encourage exploration, reflection, and enjoyment of the surrounding environment.

Locally Sourced Granite with a Story

One of the most remarkable features of this outdoor living space is the material itself. The patio overlooks the very hills where this granite originated — the true definition of locally sourced natural stone. Using reclaimed and antique granite not only adds unique character but also reduces environmental impact.

Blending Landscape, Stonework & Nature

The seamless flow of stonework, steps, and plantings gives this Groton backyard a sense of belonging to the landscape rather than sitting on top of it. By designing with the existing hillside, we preserved natural contours and enhanced them with artisan stone elements that will stand the test of time.
