A highlight of the design was a raised-bed vegetable garden surrounded by stone-walled terraces and a wooden fence. The site also featured additional stone walls,walks and stairs; perennial borders; flowering shrubs and roses adjacent to and amidst wooded areas; and a swimming pool. The exact location of the property is not known.
