Peggy and Lance want to welcome you to their gardens.  The home was in rough shape when it was purchased, but it is now an oasis full of outdoor living spaces, ponds, colorful flowers, and drought-tolerant plants.  The front yard, in particular, has gone through some big changes since last year.   The new flagstone courtyard is surrounded by fences covered with Eden Roses and includes a cozy seating area.  You will also find a large Crape Myrtle surrounded by beautiful landscaping, which includes many a drought-resistant plant that has become a hummingbird haven.  More changes can be found when you enter the back yard with the addition of English-style tumbled pavers, curved walkways and a pergola.  Here you will also find two separate ponds. The large pond is filled with plants and large koi, while the smaller pond is filled with beautiful lilies and aquatic plants. There are more than a few outdoor rooms that take advantage of the beautiful landscaping throughout the yard including an art/guest studio and a new 30’x12’ screened in porch.  This porch has become one of the most popular spaces to hang out with protection from the sun, the rain, and those pesky mosquitos in the summer.  You will also find two raised beds for veggies and berries.  The Liimatainens have created a place to relax and enjoy - anytime of the year.
