Wishing to recapture the original charm of the house, the client commissioned SMI with the confidence that we would transform the grounds, not only aesthetically, but also in a way that would suit the family’s needs and lifestyle. Chadds Ford, with its Country Roads winding through hills and dales, is one of the most scenic areas of the United States. That, coupled with the history of the area, dating back to Revolutionary times, and its fine public gardens, makes it a personal favorite of ours. The house and grounds that our client created fits perfectly into their scenic surroundings, which is the best compliment one can give. The planting will grow and all will need care, but this garden is built to last.
