48 SUMMER 2019 "O VERSIZED IS WHAT WE WERE GOING FOR," SAYS landscape designer Trent Lloyd when recalling this Newburyport project. Tucked inside a Mark DePiero development, the new Crafts- man-inspired house features large windows with very few mullions overlooking a residential cul-de-sac and a busy road. It was the expansive glass that, in large part, sold the clients on the house. It also informed the pool garden by Lloyd Fleischer Landscape Design. The objective was to create a private poolside retreat and lounge area for the family of four. To start, Lloyd and her business partner, Amy Fleischer, took advantage of a slight grade change on the lot. "Whenever we are dealing with elevation changes, particularly at this house, which is another three to four feet up from grade, we are conscientious about not creating the feeling of a hole. By pulling the stairs out, making them as wide as possible, and terracing them down, we eliminated that potential," inspire The outdoor living space will scale down as the landscape matures.
