Marshall Rain Garden and Slope Stabilization

Marshall, NC

Siting the new home and long driveway on this 60-acre horse farm with sloping topography required extensive attention to grading, slope stabilization and stormwater management. The home was designed around a large water feature with a rain garden to capture water from the roof. Native plantings were used throughout the site including in the riparian buffer area, wetland, and on the steep slopes lining the driveway.
