Family Garden Transformation, Heaton Chapel

Summary

This mid-century family home in Heaton Chapel had a tired, overgrown garden dominated by an old outhouse, leaving the outdoor space largely unusable. We transformed it into a functional, welcoming garden that complements modern family life.

New turf and carefully laid paving stones were installed, along with steps leading up to a terrace outside the bi-fold doors, creating smooth transitions between indoor and outdoor living. Horizontal fencing and planters add privacy and visual interest, while drainage improvements and subtle lighting ensure the garden is practical, low-maintenance and enjoyable at any time of day.
