A beautifully designed 1 acre garden divided into different areas. The formal section begins with a French style boule pit and herb garden and continues with knot gardens. A vibrant herbaceous border and two large ponds with water lilies and aquatic plants frame a sunken patio leading to an oak building. A wisteria walk leads into a naturalistic area with wildflower mounds.
