The home had an uninspiring front garden, with lots of grass, a single tree and an old sandstone pathway.

The paths were formed from porcelain paving in a warm beige tones create movement to the two focal points and access to the front door for deliveries and the primary parking.

The primary focal point is a beautiful sculpture under planted with wildlife friendly geraniums.Low Yew Hedging frames the pathways.  The secondary is a beautiful Acer tree with Glacier Boulders. 

The low Yew hedging aids delivery drivers reversing in the estate as a visual marker of what’s garden and what’s driveway thus stopping them driving over the garden.
