Hursthouse Landscape

HM Hursthouse Landscaping

For more than 35 years, award-winning landscape architects, contractors, and stewards at Hursthouse Landscape have taken on the challenge of creating outdoor environments that reflect a client’s vision while standing up to weather, time, and daily life. Their work blends creativity and technical expertise with a clear understanding of how homeowners truly live in and use their outdoor spaces.

Unlike firms that rely on outside partners, Hursthouse Landscape brings certified landscape architects, experienced construction teams, and in-house maintenance professionals together from the start of each project. That three-part collaboration shapes every decision, ensuring the design vision aligns with how the space will be built and how it will be cared for over time. Homeowners aren’t left navigating multiple teams or conflicting interpretations—everyone involved is working from the same plan.

This integrated approach helps avoid common pitfalls seen when design, construction, and maintenance happen separately. Features aren’t imagined without regard for real-world conditions or long-term upkeep. From landscapes and hardscapes to outdoor kitchens, pergolas, firepits, and water features, each element is planned with creativity, usability, and longevity in mind—so outdoor spaces perform as beautifully as they look.

The result is a property designed with intention and built to last. But at Hursthouse Landscape, installation isn’t viewed as the finish line. Outdoor environments evolve, and long-term success depends on thoughtful, informed care.

Because the same team that designs and builds the landscape is also responsible for its maintenance, they understand how each space is meant to mature. Plant health is monitored, structural elements are protected, and adjustments are made as the landscape grows—preserving both the integrity of the design and the homeowner’s investment.

Whether starting from scratch or reimagining an existing space, Hursthouse Landscape partners closely with homeowners to create outdoor environments that feel personal, purposeful, and enduring.

Aili Flannery’s award-winning sculpture, “Process,” was made of copper, string, copper wire, glass beads, glass, rust-stained fabric, lace, turmeric sun-printed paper, and thread. It represents “the timeline of having depression to the process of healing,” Flannery explained, and the theme is rooted in her own experiences. “‘Start’ shows up again at the end [of the piece], because I was ready to start healing and to continue living.”
