The garden at the rear of this impressively refurbished house in Totteridge N20 needed extensive landscaping works to convert it into this beautiful and useable family garden. 

​

Extensive areas of Italian porcelain on the upper and lower terraces are connected by impressive stairs.

Large 600mm x 600mm porcelain tiles were used to create the patios 
and main walkways through the garden. These tiles were chosen to match the interior tiles, providing a seamless feel to the space when the expansive sliding doors are open.

​

An outdoor kitchen was created to provide alfresco dining in the Summer months.

​

Generous planting beds border the upper patio and lawn and are edged with corten steel.

 

The planting consists of low grasses (Luzula Nivea), a mix of perennials and 
shrubs that give all year interest e.g. Hydrangea Annabelle, Astrantia major 'Roma' (Masterwort), Salvia caradonna (Balkan clary) and Hemerocallis (Daylily).

​

An overgrown woodland in the lower section of the garden was reclaimed by thinning out and removing scrubland, creating a clearing in the centre where a wildflower meadow was planted.

Gravel paths, wind there way from the lower lawn through the woodland and back again to give all weather access to all parts of the garden.
