Before & After: Transforming a Bare Backyard into a Stunning Outdoor Living Space
Is your backyard sitting unused? You're not alone. Many Minnesota homeowners dream of turning their outdoor space into something beautiful—but don’t know where to start. That’s where we come in.
The Challenge: A Plain Backyard with Untapped Potential
When our client reached out, they had a wide, open backyard that backed up to a beautiful tree line, but it lacked structure and usable space. They sought to create a peaceful retreat that fit naturally with the surrounding landscape and would add value to their home.
The Solution: A Custom Fire Pit Patio Surrounded by Natural Beauty
We designed a circular paver patio centered around a stone fire pit, bordered by native plantings and mulch for low-maintenance appeal. Key features included:
A round paver design that blends seamlessly into the natural setting
A built-in fire pit perfect for cozy gatherings
Decorative boulders and natural edging that define the space without disrupting the view
Native shrubs, ornamental grasses, and evergreens for seasonal color and texture
Mulch-covered paths and plant beds for a clean, polished look
The Result: A Quiet Backyard Retreat for All Seasons Now, the family enjoys relaxing evenings by the fire, surrounded by trees and native landscaping. The patio is a peaceful extension of the yard that feels private, intentional, and completely at home in nature.
“We love how the patio turned out—it feels like a natural part of our property now. Monarch Landscaping took our vision and made it even better.”
