Hidden Valley Ranch
Country House by Stephen Stone Designs in Westlake Village, CA
Natural flowering grasses and drifts of lavender were mass planted among native oaks at this twenty acre ranch. Stone that was quarried on the site made up all the walls, fountains, seating benches and patios throughout.
Barren rocky hillsides became green meadows with tens of thousands of drought resistant grasses. Giant agaves were nestled amongst the native oaks and decomposed granite pathways, while Mendocino roses ramble down steep slopes.
