Moved from Hobart to Melb late 2021 to house site unseen. Greeting us was overgrown trees, shrubs and uncared for block. We cut, trimmed and removed the overgrown. We wanted to establish a pretty, easy care, warm inviting garden utilising the sunny areas. We have achieved this in around just under 3 years. It’s the perfect place to relax in the sunshine and enjoy a wine with family and friends. We have pelicans, black swans, magpies and many varieties of birds visit us.

What a wonderful transformation, and congratulations on all your hard work. It’s amazing to see how you’ve turned an overgrown, neglected block into a warm and inviting garden in just a few short years. The combination of volcanic rocks, pebbled pathways and large planters has created a well-balanced, easy-care space that still feels full of life and texture. It sounds like the perfect spot to relax in the sunshine and enjoy those visits from pelicans, black swans and magpies. A beautiful effort, and you should be very proud of what you’ve achieved.
