Chaplin Estates Residence
Wrought iron gates and lush plantings welcome you into this private enclave. This skillfully integrated garden features a stunning contemporary water feature that provides a glistening shimmer of light. The design capitalizes on the unique spatial layout of the back yard in which the coach house separates two distinct areas. A built in BBQ is set in a practical nook at garden level near the kitchen which allows it to serve both indoor and outdoor dining. A bistro table and chairs provide a pleasant place to sit while dinner is cooking. A dining table is tucked comfortably behind the BBQ.
