A curved blue-gray paver walkway, brick-faced raised planters, and a hydrangea hedge anchor this Wilmington row-home rebuild.
This Wilmington row home had the brick architecture, but the front entry didn't match. The owners wanted a rebuild that felt original to the house and stood up to the foot traffic of a busy street.
We rebuilt the front entry of this Wilmington row home as an integrated hardscape, with every element keyed to the home's red brick and white-trim architecture. A curved paver walkway in blue-gray composite stone leads from the sidewalk to the porch, edged in red brick with granite cobble accents at the base of the porch. Brick-faced raised planter walls with bluestone caps frame the walkway on both sides, holding mounded boxwoods, ornamental grasses, hostas, and a full hedge of blue and pink hydrangeas. Brick stair risers rise to the paver landing at the porch, and scrollwork wrought iron railings bracket the steps. A river-rock strip handles drainage along the foundation.
The walkway, brick risers, and hydrangea hedge now read as if they had always been there. The wrought iron details and cobble accents tie the rebuild back to the home's original brick and trim work.
This is the kind of work Kevin and the Nature's Call team do across Wilmington, Greenville, Hockessin, Chadds Ford, Garnet Valley, and throughout northern Delaware and southeastern Pennsylvania. Every project is designed to the specific property — no two are the same.
