As reported by the Cape Gazette, a Delaware landscape design/build firm is in the process of moving into its new digs in Rehoboth Beach, DE, a popular Atlantic Coast resort town.

Joe Ashton founded Ashton Group At The Beach in 2003. He said a lot of his work has been in the Rehoboth area for the past few years, and he’s been looking up and down Route 1 for a Cape Region home for his design studio. When this spot opened up, he jumped at the chance.

The property itself is undergoing a complete makeover. Ashton has stripped the 60-year-old house to the studs to make sure the new location is warm and inviting for his customers when it’s all done. He’s already planted dozens of trees and bushes on the property, and some of his hardscaping handiwork can be seen at the base of the new, sky-blue business sign on the Route 1 side of the property and the driveway entrance on the backside.

Ashton said he hopes to have the renovation done and the studio open by February. He said there are plans to have a bells-and-whistles display on the front of the property: an outdoor patio, fiberglass pool, weather-friendly bar setup and pergola.

Ashton’s company does everything from the beginning of the project to the end – from designing the idea using state-of-the-art computer software to all the landscaping and hardscaping. Ashton Group also specializes in pools, lighting, irrigation and drainage.
