Expert Opinion:
those mature evergreens took years to grow in, and they're doing serious work screening out the neighboring sightlines. at 2,065 square feet with 40 feet of width, this direct living terrace seats a dozen people comfortably before anyone notices the courtyard orientation. west-facing means late afternoon sun, which is exactly when you want it.

Expert Opinion:
the direct living terrace in this home is almost useless beyond framing your views with plants, but that is ok, as the direct roof terrace is very spacious and practical
