Tudor Backyard with Herringbone Brick Patio

A red brick patio features an outdoor dining table and stone fire pit set beside a green lawn and a Tudor home showcasing half-timbered walls, steep gables, and leaded glass windows.

Design notes

Tudor design answers the house. Look for half-timbered gables and tall chimneys echoed in dark timber pergolas and arbours, herringbone brick and flagstone terraces, low stone walls, and hedges of yew and box that give the garden formal rooms near the house before it loosens into roses, wisteria and lawn. Leaded glass, copper lanterns and a slightly storybook proportion keep the look coherent.

What to look for

  • How the space is zoned — dining, lounging, lawn, planting
  • Sightlines from the back door to the furthest feature
  • Layers of privacy: canopy, screening, structure
