The landscaping on this property, a historic home in Harwich Center, was a true collaboration. The homeowners devised the landscape design and executed much of it themselves. When they were in need of help with some of the heavy lifting, they called on us. So the lush perennial beds which surround three sides [...]

The owners of this Chatham home had a unique vision for their Cape Cod landscape design. They wanted the look in the front of the home to have a traditional ‘Nantucket appeal’ while at the rear of the home, they requested something more contemporary. Between the entrance and the white picket fence, which [...]

After purchasing an iconic vintage home overlooking Town Cove in Orleans, the new owners immediately renovated the existing home and adjacent guest cottage, but left the landscaping virtually unchanged for two years. In the fall of 2015, we began a complete renovation of the home’s backyard which overlooks the water. An older pool, [...]

Set on a secluded lot away from the bustle of downtown Chatham, this home is a true oasis. We began the landscape design with long driveway,topped with clam shells and finished with a granite brick berm, which includes a curve so that the home isn't visible from the street. A circular perennial bed with [...]

At The Mooring, an antique sea captain’s home on Main Street in Harwich Port which was renovated and turned into a rental property, we designed the landscape, both the plantings and hardscaping, so that it’s in keeping with the vintage property. For the permanent elements we went with fencing which complements, rather than [...]

This project – a cluster of freestanding condominiums in Chatham – blends elements of commercial and residential landscaping. We designed the area surrounding each unit, the walkways, landings and surrounding beds, so that each is distinctive yet the entire project still looks cohesive as a whole. In the common areas, including the parking lots and [...]

We designed this home’s landscaping to include a gently-curving driveway so that just a peek of the house can be seen from the street. A center island rimmed with granite pavers in the circular drive creates a focal point. We kept most of the plantings across the front of the home low to the ground [...]

This home is set close to the street on a steeply-sloped lot and is quite close to its neighbors. In the front of the home, we installed a series of stone retaining walls. The lower level, closest to the street, contains a raised flowerbed filled with a variety of brightly-colored blooms. The upper tier provides [...]

For this single-story, marsh-front home, Executive Landscaping designed and installed expansive stone terraces. Multiple levels, created with natural stone retaining walls, define the various spaces, including a dining area and fire pit, with everything kept low to the ground ensuring that the terraces complemented, rather than competed with, the home. A conjoined series of circles [...]

This classic Shingle-style home called for an equally classic approach to the landscape design. Executive Landscaping designed and installed a circular stone driveway which spans much of the front of the home. A cobblestone encircled patch of grass at its center highlights a nautical-style flagpole. To one side is a bluestone terrace situated under a [...]

This waterfront home is quite large, with enough space to accommodate the homeowners’ love of entertaining and overnight visitors, so it needed a large driveway. In order to keep it from feeling overwhelming, we designed the driveway in a circular shape and used stone similar in a color to the home’s shingles for the front [...]

This new home is sited on a large, oceanfront parcel. The extensive stonework, designed and installed by Executive Landscaping, was incorporated into architectural elements, including stone pads for exterior support columns and the front porch, and was used to define spaces within the landscaping. The rear ocean-facing side of the home has a large, natural [...]

For this project – a new home located on the water – we incorporated hardscaping features to maximize the usable outdoor space and created and installed a landscape design which relied on plantings that are able to thrive in the seaside locale such as beach grass, hydrangea and Stella D’oro lilies. Natural bluestone walkways encircle [...]
