Expanding Driveways with Benty’s Landscaping in Sierra Meadows, Truckee

Our clients wanted to enhance their existing driveway, making it not only more functional for multiple vehicles but also visually appealing to complement their beautiful mountain home.

The Challenge

The original driveway was narrow and lacked the practicality needed for everyday use, especially during the snowy Sierra winters. Our task was to create a spacious, durable, attractive driveway that would withstand the elements and provide ample space.

Benty’s Landscaping Solution

Cameron and the team developed a plan to expand and modernize the driveway, ensuring it blended seamlessly with the natural surroundings:

Expanding the Driveway:
We leveled up the front side yard and increased its width using gravel, providing more parking space and ease of access.

Utilizing Local Materials:
Using locally sourced stones ensures durability and aesthetic harmony with the mountain landscape.

Retaining Wall:
A sturdy retaining wall made of large mountain rock was added to manage elevation changes while adding architectural interest.

Thoughtful Landscaping:
Surrounding the new driveway with native plants softened the appearance and integrated it into the yard’s natural beauty.

The Result

The expanded driveway now offers ample space and functionality and enhances the property’s overall appearance. It’s a welcoming gateway to the home, reflecting both style and practicality.

“The new driveway has completely changed how the homeowner can use their space. It’s not only practical but truly enhances their home’s curb appeal.” – Cameron Benty, Beny’s Landscaping
