Rural Hamptons Garden

The Rural Hamptons Garden project for the Morris Family in Louth Park, Hunter Valley, completed in 2023, embodies the essence of elegance and formality in a Cottage building style. Sprawling across rural acreage, this landscape design captures the charm of a Hamptons Style with a touch of sophistication. The use of sandstone elements adds a timeless appeal to the surroundings, creating a harmonious blend of traditional and contemporary aesthetics. 

The meticulously planned garden reflects the beauty of a cottage garden while maintaining a formal structure that exudes refinement. From the carefully chosen plantings to the strategic placement of Bluestone organic steppers and sandstone edging, every detail is thoughtfully curated to enhance the overall ambiance of the space. With a focus on creating a tranquil retreat, this project aims to provide the Morris Family with a picturesque setting where they can unwind and appreciate the natural beauty that surrounds them.

The planting design incorporates Magnolia Little Gems and Crepe Myrtles trees, surrounded by Rhaphiolepsis Snow Maiden, Camellias, Standard Iceberg Roses, underplanted with cottage styled plants Brachyscome, Society Garlic, Blue Fescue, Cuphea mauve and Gaura Butterfly Bush.

Jaiba Stone Cladding by Artisan Exterior was added to the house facade and letterbox adding a little bit of texture and natural stone to this elegant hampton’s home.

Constructed by Karl Drinkwater Landscapes did a fabulous job of bringing the design into reality.
