Yes, and they are some of the most rewarding projects in our portfolio. Historic Main Line properties have an architectural character that outdoor spaces need to respond to rather than compete with. We will collaborate to select stone, hardscape materials, and structural details that feel like they belong to the property.
MasterPlan Outdoor Living
Main Line Outdoor Living Design & Build
Main Line Philadelphia's Best Outdoor Living Design + Build Team
MasterPLAN designs and builds custom outdoor living spaces across the Philadelphia Main Line, serving homeowners in Villanova, Gladwyne, Wayne, Berwyn, Bryn Mawr, and the surrounding communities of Montgomery and Delaware County. The properties along this corridor represent some of the most architecturally significant residential real estate in the Mid-Atlantic, and the outdoor living spaces we design here are built to match that standard. Our Main Line projects include luxury pool and spa design, outdoor kitchen and bluestone patio construction, covered pavilion and pergola builds, and whole-property landscape integration, each designed from the ground up to complement the scale, character, and architectural presence of the home it surrounds.
These properties have history, but what they don’t always have is an outdoor living space tailored to the family wanting to enjoy them. Accomplishing that requires a design-build partner who understands the expectations that come with your property’s true potential, asks thoughtful questions, communicates clearly, and delivers seamlessly.
Outdoor spaces here need to be designed meticulously, built from materials that grow with your family, and built with the precision that high-caliber properties demand. That’s not a standard every firm can meet, but it’s the standard the MasterPLAN Advantage is built around, and it’s why the clients we work with come back when the next phase of their property is ready.

Schedule a Discovery CallFrequently Asked Questions
Does MasterPLAN have experience designing for historic Main Line properties?
What natural stone materials are most popular for luxury patios?
On the Main Line, bluestone is the predominant choice for primary patio surfaces. It ages gracefully, complements the stone facades common to older homes in this corridor, and holds up through Pennsylvania’s seasonal range. For walls, fieldstone and bluestone extend the material language of the home’s exterior into the landscape.
How do you design outdoor living spaces that complement Main Line architecture?
The approach starts with timeless creativity. Main Line properties have a presence that comes from proportion, material quality, and landscape maturity. We begin every project with a thorough analysis of the home’s existing material palette and architectural language before a single design decision is made.
Can outdoor kitchens and patios be integrated into estate-style properties?
Yes! A successful outdoor living space consists of three zones: grilling, dining, and lounging. Integrating these into a cohesive environment that feels professionally and thoughtfully designed rather than accumulated takes a planned approach from the start, which is how we approach every project along the Main Line.
How do you maintain a timeless outdoor design aesthetic?
By prioritizing material quality and architectural coherence over trend-driven features. The spaces that look as considered in fifteen years as they do on completion day are built from materials that age gracefully, designed with proportions that feel right relative to the home, and a low-maintenance landscape design that matures beautifully over time.
