5 Urban Landscapers in Sydney To Design Your Backyard in 2024

Landscaping your residences should be much more than installing a lawn and a few plants by the perimeter.   A well-considered garden can evolve into an oasis of calm, bringing enjoyment and privacy to your family     

The value and enjoyment of a house is vastly improved by sympathetic landscaping.    A good landscaping service can tie the outdoor areas of the house to the indoors and enhance the value of both.    

Landscaping designs can be minimal to high maintenance, depending on your desires (and budget). 

A few designers who excel at creating memorable spaces in limited urban spaces include the businesses below. 

 

1. Think Outside Gardens

Toorak and its surrounding suburbs have always been one of the most sought-after regions of Melbourne. One of the city’s best examples of a prestigious locale, Toorak encompasses a level of style, beauty and desirability that many aspire to. From its exclusive cul-de-sacs, idyllic surroundings, and proximity to the city, Toorak has it all.

This property at 8 Robertson Street offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase a true statement of elegance in the heart of postcode 3142.

The first thing to be noted about this elegant four-bedroom, three-bathroom, circa 1920s solid brick Arts and Crafts residence is its meticulous renovation, which embodies luxurious modern living. The perfect home to create both an idyllic setting for relaxed living as well as lavish entertaining, the single-storey property set over a generous 1,811sqm block also presents its future owners with the opportunity to further extend, or even rebuild to factor in potential city views from a second storey (STCA).

Elegantly designed living spaces include features such as French oak floors, a sky-lit reception hall (leading to a spacious sitting room), a formal dining room, a peaceful library or study space, an expansive gourmet kitchen with Calacatta marble benches and solid oak joinery. The main light-filled bedroom suite with original fireplace overlooks the garden, while beautiful floor-to-ceiling joinery in the dressing room behind it provides extensive storage for clothes, shoes and accessories. At the rear of the house, an equally spacious bedroom has its own ensuite, with a third bathroom in the other wing of the house next to the home gym.

In the north-facing garden, you might notice a familiar aesthetic; the “country-style” garden has been designed by sought-after, award-winning Australian landscape designer Paul Bangay. Perfect for entertaining, the mature, seasonal garden includes a mosaic-tiled pool and outdoor living room with reclaimed stone paving from Ireland, as well as a domed fountain, aqueduct-style water feature and rose covered arbour.

For those that have, perhaps, been searching for the right home opportunity, 8 Robertson Street, Toorak could signal the end of your search. Located in one of Toorak’s most picturesque and sought after streets, it’s a country estate in the heart of the city.
