Behind the porch and closer to the property line is where the new pergola is proposed. The pergola stands 8’-6” to the bottom of the top slats. The eastern posts sit on a new 2-foot-tall brick wall that extends from the corner of the house to the back of the existing carriage house. The rearmost corner of the wall will house the proposed water feature. The water feature will be a wall mounted water supply and low basin. The outdoor kitchen is incorporated into the wall where it connects to the existing house. The kitchen consists of a small counter and a built-in grill. The existing roof overhang will be extended out 2 feet in this area. The proposed patio is the area enclosed within the new wall from the carriage house to the main house. Portions of the patio are to be stamped concrete and other areas are to be pavers. A freeform step marks the transition between the stamped concrete and paver areas.
