Outdoor Odyssey

Outdoor living is easy at this colonial in Westport, due to its well thought out masonry and landscaping, which form retaining walls, terraces, a beautiful backyard and pool, and two porches. The main terrace level is made up of lawn area connecting two flagstone patios, each of which has a stone staircase leading to the backyard. Stone retaining walls ring the back of the house and form a transition from house to main lawn. The pool patio is made of the same type of flagstone as the other patios, providing continuity. When the days grow shorter, the fun moves to the screened porch with its rustic stone exterior fireplace and heated ceiling.
