The Work, Up Close

Aerial three-quarter view of the front of the North Wilmington home: the stone-and-cedar-shake facade sits centered, the curved tan paver driveway with charcoal Belgium-block edge sweeps in from below, foundation beds of mounded boxwoods and seasonal color trace the front, and a smooth lawn rolls down to the camera

Frontal view of the North Wilmington front entry: the covered porch with white columns and lantern hangs above double dark wood front doors, blue ceramic urn pots with ornamental grasses flank the entry, and brick-paver walkway rolls in from below the foreground

Pink mophead hydrangeas in the foreground bed of the North Wilmington property, sharply focused with the home's stone facade and covered porch soft-focus in the distance behind a large mature tree trunk
