Finished Side Yard Fence and Deck!

When we purchased this home, we always knew that we would have to do something with the side yard space that was just simply unused. Bordered by horrible junipers, we had those ripped out the first week we were in the house and then starting sketching a side access and side yard.


Google view of old color and framed out french doors.


Here is the yard with the new french doors installed.




The fence took about a week to finish.




Snapshots of the deck being laid out.





The finished product complete with benches and a large planter! We are working on a landscape plan that includes a tree to give some shade. The deck is in full sun from morning to mid afternoon and it gets brutally hot out there! So far we have had two get togethers eating out on the deck and the benches come in handy for extra seating.

What do you think??
