Mornington Project
Brief
..........
We were engaged to construct this landscape in Mornington. The property was purchased as an investment property that was to be developed and sold.
The couple that was developing the property is experienced in creating high end living properties. Felicity presented us with a prepared landscape design and with a few suggestions from Anthony, we came up with a multi-functional easy living landscape.
Style

The street appeal of this property was the striking front fence with an automatic gate. The hardwood timber fence was painted black in keeping with the modern look of the house. A decking pod front path with inbuilt lights leads visitors from the pedestrian gate to the front door.
The vista from the causal living room at the centre of the house looks out over a stone water feature, designed maintenance-free with the use of grey tumbled rock.
The side pathway connects to the back-entertaining area that was paved in a luxurious travertine paver in French style pattern. The inbuilt seating stores cushions to add comfort to the hardwood seating and firewood for the firepit. The undercover deck area is an excellent idea for rainy days.
Ficus Hilli flash was used as a green screen to add privacy to the boundary fencing. Hardy buffalo instant turf was planted through the front and side garden and to the nature strip.
Garden lighting was used to enhance the feature tree and water feature that creates a picturesque view at night.
