Specialty structures elevate the property's functionality and charm: Garden studio/yoga hut for reflection, wellness, or artistry. Potting shed constructed from reclaimed materials. Culinary garden areas for hands-on growing. Meditation labyrinth and serene outdoor sanctuaries Throughout the year, this environment shifts and evolves from vibrant spring emergence to sculptural winter forms delivering an immersive, ever-changing natural experience.
