he first thing one notices at this home is the 9-foot-
deep covered front porch, which was added during a
recent renovation. The planters, in varying heights,
are full of lush seasonal flowers and greens that bring the
landscape up closer to the house. Low-slung comfy seating
is inviting and evokes feelings of lingering afternoons. The
Ipe wood decking was chosen for its authenticity and feels
wonderful to walk on. The hanging lanterns are centered on
each window and reinforce the strong linear relationships
on the home’s front elevation.”
