Ramona Ranch Reimagined: Outdoor Living at Its Finest
When our client bought a 5-acre ranch in Ramona, he saw potential—but the backyard and landscaping fell short of the dream. He didn’t have a detailed plan, just one clear goal: to transform the property so every window framed something beautiful.
Over two months, we worked closely with him to bring that vision to life. Through collaboration and creative design, we reimagined the entire outdoor space. D Carson led the landscape redesign, using drought-tolerant, low-maintenance plants that deliver year-round curb appeal. We also created new spaces for entertaining and relaxing—made to blend effortlessly with the surrounding terrain.
Key features of the transformation:
Custom patio structure with shaded seating, perfect for lounging or hosting
Complete outdoor kitchen with pizza oven, BBQ, wine fridge, dishwasher, warming drawers, full sink, and a built-in media center with TV
Resurfaced pool and expanded pool deck, ideal for soaking up the sun or entertaining guests
Custom-built fire pit for cozy evenings under the stars
The result? A private outdoor retreat designed for family living and entertaining—fully embracing the San Diego climate and the wide-open beauty of Ramona.
