Luxury is no longer confined to the interiors of the home. At May Residential, we understand that today’s discerning homeowners expect seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor living—spaces that invite nature in while offering the same comfort, craftsmanship, and attention to detail found throughout the home. The image above captures exactly that: an outdoor oasis designed to extend the lifestyle experience of a May Residential home beyond its walls.
This custom-built outdoor living area exemplifies our commitment to creating personalized, elevated environments that reflect the unique lifestyles of our clients. Whether it’s for hosting under the stars, morning coffee in serenity, or soaking in the spa after a long day, this outdoor space is built to be lived in—elegantly and effortlessly.
Blurring Boundaries Between Indoor and Outdoor Living
One of the most powerful trends in luxury home design is the integration of indoor and outdoor environments. The covered porch seamlessly extends from the home’s main structure, offering a shaded, breezy retreat that’s perfect for both relaxation and entertaining.
By blending natural materials, soft color palettes, and architectural lines that echo the interior design, this space feels like a true extension of the home. Sliding or retractable glass doors often connect these areas, inviting gentle breezes and natural light deep into the house while encouraging movement between zones of leisure.
Purpose-Built for Relaxation and Wellness
Perhaps one of the most notable features in this outdoor living area is the integrated hot tub, discreetly built into the covered patio space. For May Residential clients, wellness is not an afterthought—it’s built into the very fabric of the home. The spa offers year-round relaxation, hydrotherapy benefits, and a place to unwind after a busy day.
This dedication to wellness-centric design is at the core of what sets May Residential apart. Our team works with homeowners to understand their daily routines and rituals, ensuring each space we build contributes to a higher quality of life.
Elegant Outdoor Furnishings and Custom Hardscaping
Just beyond the porch, a sun-drenched paver patio invites moments of quiet reflection or casual conversation. The sculptural outdoor chairs bring a sense of artistic minimalism to the space while providing ergonomic comfort and visual balance. Framed by lush greenery and native plantings, the setting is private, peaceful, and deeply connected to the surrounding natural landscape.
The hardscaping—meticulously laid stone pavers—grounds the space in durability and elegance, forming an ideal base for outdoor living. At May Residential, every patio and walkway is designed not just for utility, but as an architectural feature that complements the home’s character and enhances daily living.
Embracing the Surrounding Landscape
Surrounded by mature trees and a verdant landscape, this backyard retreat feels like an escape. The design enhances the natural beauty of the setting, working with the environment rather than against it. Native plants and trees not only require less maintenance and irrigation but also create a harmonious aesthetic that evolves beautifully with the seasons.
We believe that a luxury home should respect and celebrate its environment. That’s why May Residential incorporates sustainable landscaping practices and design elements that promote both beauty and environmental stewardship.
An Entertainer’s Dream, Day or Night
Whether it’s an afternoon garden party, a weekend barbecue, or a quiet evening under the stars, this outdoor space was built to accommodate it all. The open layout provides ample room for guests to mingle, while the multiple seating areas encourage conversation and connection.
With the addition of outdoor lighting, fire features, or even an alfresco kitchen—amenities often requested by our clients—this space could be easily transformed into a year-round entertaining hub. At May Residential, we don’t just design spaces for show; we create them to be lived in with purpose and joy.
Customization Is Key
Every home we build begins with a conversation: What does luxury mean to you? What spaces do you need for your lifestyle? What brings you peace, inspiration, and joy?
This outdoor living area is a direct result of those conversations—a tailored environment reflecting our client’s desires for beauty, privacy, and function. From integrated wellness features like the hot tub to the artistic furniture selections and flow of the space, it’s clear this isn’t just a backyard—it’s a personal sanctuary.
Elevating Everyday Living Outdoors
At May Residential, we believe that the outdoors shouldn’t be an afterthought. It should be part of the core experience of your home. Whether nestled in a wooded setting like this one or positioned to take in waterfront or mountain views, our outdoor designs embody the same craftsmanship, elegance, and innovation found in every room we create.
We don’t build cookie-cutter houses—we build legacies. And those legacies often begin in places just like this: where nature meets design, and where luxury becomes a lifestyle.
