The difference between your front and backyard is night and day. While the front yard showcases your home, the backyard serves as a private getaway, where you can escape the chaos of ringing phones, fighting children and blaring televisions to unwind from a stressful day. When designing your backyard the most important thing to keep in mind is your lifestyle. If you frequently have backyard parties with the neighbors, a deck for seating and barbecue equipment might be the right answer. If you enjoy dining outside with your spouse in the evenings, a patio might be a better match. A swimming pool is also a great investment in the value of your home, and offers countless cool hours of fun and family bonding time during the summer. If you're an avid reader, or simply enjoy the idea of a private escape just steps from you back door, a pond or garden fountain can serve as a peaceful oasis where the noises of every day life are blocked out by the serene sounds of running water. Whichever you choose, be sure to measure the cost-to-property value with the most important factor: which option will improve your quality of living.
