A contemporary house with the most spectacular views.
The garden was very disjointed and there was no access from the garage to the front door as can be seen in the ‘before’ images. A rather unpleasant orange tinged decking surrounded the property and any design was rather random. The decking and wood was painted grey which has softened the approach to the house. The main challenge was to persuade visitors to drive to the front door rather than the back. This meant re-positioning some of the existing driveway and installing access from the garage. We built a retaining wall to match the house with steps up to the higher level. A Corton Steel wall of water was erected falling into a shallow water feature with steps giving access to the front door.
