Thank you everyone, that helps a lot!

So do you think I can write:

The waiting area for the vet's office was built as a semicircle, framed with natural stones. Benches were built into the stone walls.


and

The driveway up to the house is made of a waterbound surface. It is framed by sandstone cobblestones, one side is bordered by a herbaceous bed. (this is the term my sister found in her dictionary)

As you look across the expansive lawn which is framed by roses and rhododendron, one has a wonderful view of the home (or house or Art Nouveau Villa). A mature tree population provides a park-like setting.


I think you all should only communicate in English. We have simple language.

LOL, great idea!!
