No. 9 Front Yards & Driveways · Classic

Flagstone Walkway to Shingled Front Porch

A flagstone walkway with metal path lights curves past mulched beds of ferns and grasses toward the stone-based porch and entry steps beneath tall evergreen trees.

Design notes

Classic design favours balance and proportion. Look for symmetry from the back door, traditional materials — stone, brick, terracotta, painted timber — furnishings that belong to the house rather than the season, and planting with structure: hedges, borders and trees placed to frame the view.

What to look for

  • The sequence from where the car stops to the front door
  • Walkway width and the landing at the door
  • Planting kept below the windows with a tree for scale
