In a previous post, I told you about Matt's vision for the backyard... well today I thought it would be cool to show you some before and after shots. Here is a picture of the backyard the first spring when we moved in... note the red-shed, the stump garden, oh, and of course the pool! You can't really see it, but just behind the red-shed there is a wire fence that basically cut our backyard in half. The previous owners used to just toss their junk back there, and it's been an ongoing effort (by Matt!) to get it under control. Here is the before (2006)
and the after (today)
This next one shows the back of the house, with the back stoop, rotted out dining room window and funky shed-like bulkhead structure. This was taken last spring, before we began the sliders/deck turned kitchen renovation project
And here it is, this afternoon... deck, sliders, slick basement access trap-door... awesome living space that we use a lot!
What can I say, the man has vision!
