The backyard features two new structures, which connect to the main house via the landscape plan by Lilyvilla Gardens. One is a 485-square-foot guesthouse, and the other is a 375-square-foot workshop for the owner, who’s a bike builder. They have the same exterior siding as the main house: rough-sawn tongue-and-groove cedar.
