The story / Mission Viejo

A front door everyone can reach.

The homeowner uses a wheelchair, but the only way up to the front door of this Mission Viejo home was a steep staircase of uneven flagstone steps, between stacked stone pillars, boulders and loose planting. The front door needed a way in without steps.

HQ designed the new front yard in 3D first, then replaced the old stone with about 1,500 square feet of acid wash concrete across the driveway, the approach and new wide steps. An ADA compliant ramp now curves up beside the steps to the front door, framed by a custom metal railing. New landscaping fills the planters along the way, low voltage lights glow under every step and lantern posts line the walkway. A luxury vinyl fence closes off the side yard.
