The first tree you encounter upon approaching this wooded estate in Lynchburg, Va., is not part of the surrounding landscape. Instead, it’s the beautiful tree you see engraved in the home’s long, winding concrete driveway, and one that you’ll find in full leaf year-round.
This grand entrance to a house in the woods didn’t always look as grand as it does today. The contractor who originally installed the concrete had applied a colored stain to the surface to improve the appearance, but within a year the stain began to flake away. Even more troublesome was how slick the driveway surface had become, causing vehicle tires to spin every time it rained.
