Elegant Garden
Long Ditton Surbiton
Under construction
Finished June 2024
A wonderful house built in the 1930’s and due for a sympathetic refurbishment keeping the aesthetic of the period. The garden is large and on a sloping plot with a tall conifer hedge to the boundaries. The terrace designed with tradtional materials to suit the property - natural stone and brick and is a large space in proportion with the house. It is set over two levels with a dining table by the house in a warm spot and an outdoor kitchen to an enclosed courtyard to the side of the house. There are steps to the second level with a bench overlooking the garden and further steps down to the sundowner terrace for evening drinks. The path leads to a large summerhouse half way down the garden with a further terrace and a separate kitchen garden to the end with a central traditional brick base greenhouse, fruit trees and raised vegtable beds. The planting will be simple and elegant to suit the style of the property.
