Timber Retreat in Whitby
A Backyard Designed for Outdoor Living in Whitby

1.
Custom Timber Pavilion
The custom timber pavilion creates a striking focal point at one end of the backyard. Exposed wood beams, a peaked roof, and substantial timber posts give the structure a warm architectural presence that complements the surrounding landscape. Its open-sided design maintains views across the yard while providing a defined destination for spending time outdoors.
2. Outdoor Fireplace & TV
A stone fireplace anchors the pavilion and introduces both function and visual character to the covered space. Positioned beneath the mounted television, it creates an entertainment area that can be enjoyed while relaxing outdoors. The combination of stone and wood also adds texture and helps give the pavilion a comfortable, finished atmosphere.
3. Large Stone Patio
A generous stone patio provides plenty of usable hardscaped space without overwhelming the greenery around it. The layout extends from the home toward the pavilion, creating an easy connection between different areas of the backyard. Its soft curves also prevent the patio from feeling overly rigid and complement the natural elements throughout the property.
4. Artificial Turf
Artificial turf adds a consistently green surface alongside the hardscaping while keeping the yard looking clean and manicured. It works particularly well within this compact backyard by providing a distinct lawn area around the patio and trees. The result is a crisp landscape finish with less ongoing lawn maintenance.
5. Outdoor Dining Space
The open patio includes a dedicated dining area positioned conveniently near the home and outdoor cooking area. There is ample room for a full dining table and chairs without interrupting movement through the backyard. This placement creates a practical setting for everything from everyday outdoor meals to larger gatherings.
6. Covered Lounge Area
Comfortable sectional seating transforms the pavilion into a dedicated outdoor lounge. The overhead structure provides shelter while still allowing the space to remain open to the surrounding yard. With seating arranged toward the fireplace and television, this area offers a more relaxed experience than the separate dining portion of the landscape.
7. Contrasting Stone Border
Dark stone detailing traces the curved perimeter of the lighter patio, creating a subtle but noticeable contrast. This border emphasizes the shape of the hardscaping and gives the edges a more defined appearance against the turf. It is a small design detail that adds another layer of craftsmanship to the overall transformation.
