The new stairs on the north side of the driveway. Before the remodel, the only way to get to this part of the yard was by going all the way around the house.
Another view of the new steps. The area next to the house with the wires will be backfilled and will hold plantings (a compact strawberry tree and a mix of sarcococca and lenten rose, according to the latest landscape plan).
The completed rear wall. Below will be grass; above will be planting beds.
