The level of trim detail and color on this Victorian home accentuates and echoes the home’s accents throughout the landscape. Mauve colored bricks, grayish natural stone pavers and grey & pink boulders were selected to marry the landscape features of the house. A selection of tumbled clay bricks and reclaimed bluestone were used for the front walk, foyer space, driveway, patio, pond & waterfall, adding an aged look to the property.
In order to maintain a historic appearance to the site, great emphasis was placed on the preservation and care of two majestic Horsechestnut trees, three flowering Crabs and several mature groupings of Yews. There are a series of paths and sweeping panels of lawn installed to create inviting linkages through various spaces. Lastly, the crown jewel of the property is the waterfall, pond and its cottage garden plantings, which throughout the season provide a whimsical garden, with ever-changing sights and sounds.

Inspiring Landscape Solutions by Parveen Dhaliwal
Significant work was involved to upgrade and modernise the house but within a reasonable budget. The garden has a small footprint both in the front and rear, and there were many practical considerations to tackle like the use of space, navigation and privacy.
I especially love the new paving and stepwork for the front garden, as the stone used is one of my favourites in terms of material and colour, and the garden looks amazing at night.
There are little nuances like a boulder placed as a seating area with an existing garden ornament that is sentimental to the clients (mummy koala holding its baby) that add an emotional element to the space.
I love the tessellated tiles used for their front porch, replacing what was just a red painted concrete floor. It’s modern but adds that element of sophistication to the space and suits the house style and area.
The rear garden had to have storage, and we needed to ensure that the client’s car was able to be parked but should not detract from the newly landscaped space.
There is a granny flat in their rear garden that gets rented out, so I had to think about how to create privacy for both parties (the tenant and my clients)!
The choice of plants was a little different as I’d mixed in succulents with exotics that give some seasonality impacts over the year. I really love the new fascia of the conservatory and the new built-in external cupboards and workbench!
