Welcoming you home and inviting your guests inside, front gardens are an important part of your home that can be tailored to match your style and enhance the exterior of your home.
Back gardens are traditionally used as the most popular space for garden entertaining, due to both greater privacy and space. However, there is no reason that you cannot transport outdoor living features and elements into your front garden to make the most out of your outdoor spaces. From stylish soft landscaping techniques to productive growing spaces, let’s uncover a few different ways that you could transform your front garden into a heavenly yet functional space.
1. Add raised beds
Looking to enhance your lifestyle with a flourishing and productive growing space? Then a collection of raised beds could be a great feature to install into your front garden. Whether you’re looking to create a thriving kitchen garden filled with home-grown produce or a cutting garden brimming with sweetly scented blooms, raised beds are a wonderful way to add visual interest to your front garden whilst providing you with handfuls of homegrown goodness.
2. Idyllic water features
Significantly boosting the kerb appeal of your garden, adding water to your front garden is a fantastic way to boost visual interest in your garden. Encouraging wildlife to explore your landscape, water features are wonderfully relaxing elements that frame the most elegant front garden scenes.
3. Vibrant borders and soft landscaping
Looking to dress your front garden with gorgeous textures, pops of colour and dreamy fragrances? Then a planting scheme created by our skilled soft landscaping team is a fabulous place to start. Designing a bespoke planting recipe best suited to your landscape and style, vibrant beds and borders are a wonderful way to transform your front garden into a pollinator-friendly paradise.
4. Garden lighting
Guiding you to your front door, a series of lighting techniques dotted around your front garden are a great way to enhance your entrance. From sunken path lights to spot lights, there are a number of ways that you can add a subtle touch of lighting to your outdoor scene.
5. Paving and pathways
Our masterly in-house landscaping team install paving and pathways to create the most striking front garden designs. Gently steering you towards your front door, staggered paving stones and softly curved pathways are two fabulous ways that you can use hard landscaping to add structure to your front garden.
6. Create a rockery
If you’re looking for a low-maintenance design for your front garden then a rockery could be the perfect style to suit your tastes and your landscape.
