A Thoughtful Front Yard Renovation
IN WYCKOFF, NJ
IN WYCKOFF, NJ
Project Description
This front yard renovation in Wyckoff, NJ, was designed to breathe new life into an older property while respecting its original character. The home’s existing landscape had become overgrown and outdated, requiring a strategic blend of removal, preservation, and new design elements. The renovation included a new unified walkway, fresh foundation plantings, and a functional river rock drainage solution. The result is a beautiful, low-maintenance landscape that enhances curb appeal and stands the test of time.
Preserving What Worked, Removing What Didn’t
Many of the existing plantings were overgrown and no longer suited the space. The weeping cherry tree was preserved as a focal point, while other plantings were replaced with low-maintenance, deer-resistant selections.
Creating a Clear & Intentional Entryway
The original walkways lacked cohesion, leading to confusion upon arrival. A newly designed walkway and courtyard-style entry now provide a defined, welcoming path to the front door.
Addressing Drainage & Erosion Concerns
The sloped driveway led to water and mulch runoff, creating an ongoing maintenance issue. A decorative river rock drainage system now ensures that water flows properly without disturbing the landscape.
This transformation not only modernized the home’s curb appeal but also made it more functional and easier to maintain, ensuring that the homeowners can enjoy their outdoor space with minimal effort year-round.
