Front Entrance Landscape Upgrade

Green Gecko Gardens completed a custom landscaping upgrade to transform the front outdoor area into a secure, functional, and visually refined entry space.

The design focused on improving street appeal, usability, and cohesion across all elements of the front section.

Scope of Work

  • Stained cedar vertical fencing

  • Matching pedestrian gate installation

  • Carport enclosure for added privacy and security

  • Paving and entry steps construction

  • Macrocarpa sleeper edging

  • Concrete finishing

  • Custom bike shed construction

  • Feature palm and decorative pebble landscaping

Project Overview

This project involved a full redesign of the front entrance area to create a more structured and welcoming arrival space.

A stained cedar vertical fence with a matching gate was installed to enclose the carport area, improving privacy while maintaining a clean, modern street-facing appearance.

The entrance was reshaped with new paving and steps, framed using macrocarpa sleepers and finished with smooth concrete to create a clear, natural flow from the street into the property.

A custom-built bike shed was integrated into the design, providing practical storage while blending seamlessly into the overall layout.

To soften the structural elements, an existing feature palm was retained and set within decorative pebble detailing, adding texture, greenery, and balance to the space.

The finished result is a cohesive and well-balanced front landscape that combines structure, privacy, and design detail.

Every element works together to improve both functionality and visual appeal, creating a strong first impression while enhancing everyday usability of the space.
