This garden nestles around around a Virginia Kerridge-designed home on Parsley Bay, a sleepy nook on Sydney Harbour.

With a sparkling pool for summertime, a fire pit for the colder months and a covered outdoor BBQ and dining space, it's fit for a king in any weather.

We used a sub-tropical pallet of plants to enclose the space and make it a private paradise.

About the
Professional

Bates Design is the culmination of a lifetime of creating breathtaking landscapes for owner Michael Bates. Our focus is on creating unique spaces informed by the lifestyle and aesthetic of our clients, as well as the features and nuances of each individual site.

A proud ‘garden agnostic’, for Michael gardening is akin to a religious experience. Our clients - who are lucky enough to live in properties where most people only dream of holidaying - are equally as devoted. They don’t believe in compromising when it comes to the vision for their homes and we’re privileged to make their garden dreams come true.

With six designers boasting a combined 40+ years of design experience, we have long appreciated the power of garden design to enrich lives. In partnership with Bates Landscape, we offer a complete solution from initial sketches to a living, breathing masterpiece.
