Terraced garden and spa deck – Kincumber

Transforming a steep slope into a private, multi-level outdoor retreat

Purpose:

The client’s property featured a steep, unusable slope. The goal was to create a functional, terraced garden incorporating a fire pit area, a spa deck, and enhanced privacy while maintaining a visually appealing design.

Project duration:

The project took 6 weeks to complete.

Result:

Despite the challenges posed by the steep gradient, we successfully built a tiered landscape that enhances the view from the home’s back deck. Dry-stacked sandstone retaining walls provide structure and a natural aesthetic, while cascading gardens soften the transition between levels, creating a striking yet functional outdoor space.

Services provided:

• Earthworks and excavation to reshape the steep slope into terraces.
• Dry-stacked sandstone retaining walls for structural support.
• Spa deck and fire pit area for relaxation and entertaining.
• Drainage and plumbing to manage water flow.
• Pathways and steps for easy access.
• Feature garden lighting to highlight key areas.
