Four Feet to the Yard

About Four Feet to the Yard

A Silver Spring front yard is often no more than a few paces deep, which means every line in it is visible from the sidewalk. Four Feet to the Yard works to that scale — even passes across the turf, the walk and driveway edged to a true line, the beds and the fence run trimmed so the shape of the lot reads clean. On the older streets near Woodside the lots are narrow and crowded with obstacles, hydrants, steps, corner posts, and none of that forgives a hurried pass. Getting it right is mostly patience and a good eye for exactly where the grass should stop. On a small yard, that eye is the whole difference.
