This romantic English-style garden uses formal lines and multi-level terraced rooms to create distinct garden rooms, each bursting with colour thanks to many distinctive flowering shrubs. Twenty years ago, this was an empty, sloping corner block with just an abandoned tennis court; today, it has evolved into a thoughtfully designed, stunning oasis complete with trees, lawns, garden beds, patios, and a pool.
There’s plenty of shade in the woodland-style front garden provided by over 60 trees. The hydrangeas, camellias, and shade-loving shrubs surrounding an oval lawn flourish in the micro-climate that keeps them cooler during the summer. A formal rose garden includes David Austin roses in pink, white, and yellow, with clipped box hedges surrounding it. Stunning stone walls and steps lead to a fountain garden themed in green and white, featuring hedges and climbing roses.
Garden Size: 2000 sqm.
Charity: Animal Welfare League.
Extra Activities: High teas on the lawn $15. Indulge in a delightful high tea on the lawn or in the courtyard. Savour tea or coffee paired with delicious finger sandwiches and bite-sized sweet treats served on elegant fine china.
