Outdoor Living at Its Finest

Emerald Irrigation & Landscape Construction’s client in North Andover, Ma. came with an AI design of how the backyard should be transformed into an outdoor kitchen and living space. While there were many design adjustments throughout the process, the result is chef’s kiss!

The living space was more than doubled with the addition of a retaining wall to mitigate the sloped yard. A TV was mounted to the new wall for easy viewing. The dining table, next to the outdoor kitchen, seats eight.
