To achieve a formal style, traditional materials and linear designs were used. The cracked concrete driveway was replaced with matching brick, and the curved walkway was straightened. The front entry was resurfaced with red clay brick veneer to create a cohesive look. Boxwoods border the front walkway, entry, patios, and driveway, forming a low hedge. The red clay brick pavers in a herringbone pattern add a timeless appeal to the house. Small garden beds feature white-blooming favorites like Hydrangea arborescens Annabelle’, Gardenia jasminoides ‘Kleim’s Hardy,’ and Liriope muscari ‘Monroe’s White.’ For privacy, Buxus sempervirens ‘Skywalker’ was chosen for hedging.
