Luxury Backyard and Landscape Design in North Center Chicago

This stunning North Center property was transformed by Rooftopia as part of a full renovation of a historic Victorian home and newly expanded garage on a rare double lot. Working closely with the homeowners, a young modern family, we designed and installed a cohesive landscape that balances timeless beauty, functionality, and year-round enjoyment.

The new front yard features evergreen screening for privacy, layered perennial gardens, and elegant seasonal containers that create curb appeal in every season. A lush side lawn provides open space for family activities, while the backyard serves as a true outdoor retreat—complete with a custom patio, outdoor kitchen, and a Renson pergola with integrated heaters for comfort in all weather.

Thoughtful touches like a welcoming front walkway, landscape lighting, automated in-ground irrigation, and vibrant planters on both porches enhance the home’s character and livability. This North Center project exemplifies Rooftopia’s dedication to craftsmanship, sustainable design, and personalized outdoor living spaces that grow with the family who enjoys them.
