Avalon sits between the bush and the beach, and gardens here have to cope with both. Salt on the wind, sandy soil in some streets and sandstone in others, and blocks that often fall away steeply from the road. We build with that in mind: hardwood that handles the weather, planting that does not mind the salt, and terracing where the land drops away.

Terraces, stairs and retaining walls that turn a slope into space you can actually use.
Coastal natives that thrive here instead of struggling through every summer.
Sensible planting choices where gardens back onto reserve.
Yes. Sloping blocks are normal for us. We terrace the site with proper retaining and drainage, then connect the levels with paving, decking and stairs so the whole garden becomes usable.
Coastal natives handle the salt and wind best. We pick planting for your particular position, because a sheltered back garden and an exposed front slope are two different jobs.
Often. Getting the deck height and seating position right is what makes the view work, and that gets decided at design stage, not on the day.
