A stylish, functional front garden to a double fronted Victorian property.

A traditional patterned tile path to the front door was used to complement the architecture and period of the property. To address functional requirements, a secure timber bike store and wheelie bin store were positioned either side of the garden, accessed over granite stepping stones and limestone chippings. These were painted to match the front door and create balance and unity to the design.

A picket fence was used along the front and side boundaries. A native yew hedge was planted behind the front fence and mixed drought-tolerant planting in front of the south-facing bay windows
