Lindfield
The Vision
The Challenge
The client envisioned a garden that complemented the heritage character of the home while bringing in a sense of modern elegance and outdoor functionality.
Striking a balance between new design elements and the already mature garden, as well as managing the site's elevation, presented challenges. Particularly around the front pathway, requiring careful planning to create a smooth transition.
The Outcome
A front and back yard renovation that enhances both the usability and aesthetic appeal of the property. The sandstone and recycled brick pathway invites guests in with timeless charm, while the firepit area provides a tranquil spot to relax and entertain. Crafted with sustainable materials, the spaces offer up a classic style that blends old and new.

This Lindfield front and rear landscape renovation on Sydney’s coveted Upper North Shore creates a seamless connection between the home and its surrounding outdoor environment.
​
As you approach the front entrance, a striking recycled brick and sandstone pathway guides you toward the home. This entryway not only provides a durable and inviting passage but also complements the natural tones of the garden. We upgraded the existing beds with fresh plantings, adding mulching and enhancing the soil to ensure long-term health and vibrancy. Garden lighting was also introduced to tastefully illuminate the space after dark, and a fresh layer of turf now softens the approach.
​
In the rear garden, a firepit and outdoor seating area nestled along the back fence line provides a new focal point. Crafted from recycled brick with a sandstone feature edge, this space is designed to be both a retreat for quiet moments and a gathering spot for balmy nights spent under the stars. Raised garden beds envelop the area, offering a fresh burst of greenery, while upgraded garden lighting ensures that the space can be enjoyed well beyond sunset.
​
Both the front and back yards incorporate existing flora. Maintaining the original aesthetic the client envisioned, while introducing subtle enhancements to bring the design to life. Lush new turf unites the spaces, while thoughtful plantings and lighting breathe new life into this garden, transforming it into a destination that can be enjoyed throughout any season.
