Town Garden
This garden was originally quite traditional in layout and didn't inspire the owners to spend much time outside. They wanted to create a more stylish and classically contemporary garden. As keen gardeners they were especially looking forward to large flower borders and a productive kitchen garden. The front garden also needed redesigning to make it look less of a ‘car park’ and and create a more welcoming area to the front door.
Property:
Recently extended detached chalet bungalow in a town location.
For large machinery access to the garden a brick wall at the side of the property had to be removed and then rebuilt.
