AVOID These 8 Backyard Features At ALL Costs
AVOID These 8 Backyard Features At ALL Costs Walk into any neighborhood across the country and you will spot them. Yards loaded with features that looked like smart investments at the time — and now sit there quietly costing their owners money, pride, and in some cases, actual resale value. A bulky pool structure that turned the yard into a storage problem. A trampoline that the kids stopped using and the insurer still charges for. An outdoor kitchen so large it swallowed the patio. I have worked in landscaping and garden design for over fifteen years, and I see these same choices playing out on property after property. One feature on this list is being actively marketed by contractors right now as a premium lifestyle upgrade — but in practice, it is the one I see abandoned and aging the fastest. We have eight to get through, so let us get started. 🌿 ABOUT GARDEN INSIDER Hey, welkom! Here you'll find practical landscaping advice from 15 years in construction and design.
