LOCKWOOD ROAD

WEST NEWTON, MASSACHUSETTS

A contemporary new front yard presents a crisp counterpart to this wonderful turn-of-the-century colonial home in West Newton. A new walkway composed of large slabs of thermal bluestone lead to a new doorstep built from one of the largest single slabs of Pennsylvania bluestone we have ever used. Stepping stones that connect the driveway to the front door are surrounded by a lush carpet of manicured lawn, giving the property an understated and sophisticated sense of arrival. A transplanted boxwood hedge softens the front of the house and provides a clean, minimalist threshold into the home.
