What is Your Home Improvement Project?

Canal Place in Lake Charles, LA Homes Feature Patio and Backyard Retreats

As a Canal Place resident in Lake Charles, LA, throughout the summer I have watched many Canal Place homeowners completing home improvement projects. This was the scene across the street from me in Canal Place.....notice the trailer load of pavers?

The paver project was the last finishing touch to the initial project which was building an outdoor fireplace! YES it does get cold enough for Southwest Louisiana residents to enjoy a fireplace!

Look at the beautiful artisan tilework!

My neighbor has extended the invitation to come hang out on the patio by the fireplace this Fall, so here I am waiting for cool weather to arrive so I can walk across the street and accept the invite!

In the meantime, I will enjoy the sound of the bubbling brook located directly behind me! Another Canal Place homeowner landscaped with this relaxing backyard oasis!
