Imagine swimming in the combined lap and plunge pool that graces the upper level of this rear garden and then enjoying the shade of the poolside pavilion. Or how about sharing a meal with friends in the covered dining area with an outdoor kitchen that’s just a step away?
Constructed by Insight Landscapes, working to a design by Living Image Design, this multilevel slice of paradise in Sydney’s south west has more than delivered on the homeowners’ request for a modern Balinese-style alfresco oasis.
The scope of works was wide-ranging and included timberwork, paving, walling, concrete formwork and the installation of a palette of tropical-style plants to engender a resort feel. Ensuring the landscaping complemented the feature pool, built by Riviera Pools and now the hub of the family’s outdoor living, was key.
