Contemporary terraced garden in North Canterbury, completed in 2024, featuring climate-appropriate planting, expansive views, and a clean hardscape design that enhances the property's natural beauty and minimizes maintenance.

As the sun sets over the hills, its golden light washes across this property.

Nestled in the hills of North Canterbury, this home boasts expansive views of the vineyards hugging the valley and the mountains beyond. Terraced levels create various zones within the garden, each carefully considered to maximise views of the landscape. While the planting scheme is both beautiful and climate-appropriate, designed to thrive in this sometimes harsh environment.

The hardscape, primarily composed of chip gravel pathways, provides a clean and contemporary aesthetic while minimizing upkeep. This practical choice also allows for a harmonious flow between the different areas of the property from the driveway, around the spa and of course - the front terracing.
