How should I landscape my house? I am working on landscaping the home I bought in October, starting with the front yard due to a couple of issues. First, there is a big dip in the yard that floods every time it rains heavily. Second, the driveway is right in front of my bedroom window, causing headlights to shine into my room when people come and go, and limiting my ability to open the windows due to privacy concerns.
I’ve hired a permaculture landscaper who is currently working on a design. Meanwhile, I need to decide what to do about the driveway and whether to add a carport.
I could really use some opinions on the following:
- How would you deal with the flooding issue?
- What would you suggest for the driveway or adding a carport? I can move the driveway to the other side of the house or leave it as is.
I can post photos if there’s a way to do that. I have many ideas also but curious to hear what folks think with this info.
