Mosman 2
This stunning Mosman entry garden is nestled into the hillside behind Chinamans Beach, surrounded by established native bushland with a lush rainforest character.
Our landscape architecture team designed a dramatic terraced garden and entry pathway that winds elegantly around a new garage extension, ascending through multi-level garden beds to the elevated home above.

Sandstone Terraced Gardens
The new entry path weaves organically through the sloping site, featuring custom-built sandstone retaining walls and natural stone paving that seamlessly integrate with existing sandstone outcrops throughout the property and surrounding Mosman landscape.
Premium sandstone was carefully selected to complement the bushland setting while providing durable, timeless pathways and terraced garden levels that manage the significant elevation change with architectural elegance.
Contemporary Coastal Materials
Natural sandstone paving and retaining walls combine beautifully with dark contemporary building finishes and warm timber cladding, creating sophisticated contrast that allows the layered garden planting to become the hero of this Mosman landscape design.
Textural Rainforest-Inspired Planting
The planting palette celebrates the site's natural rainforest qualities with dramatic textural impact visible from multiple vantage points - both at entry level and from balconies and rooms above that overlook the terraced gardens.
Multi-Level Garden Experience
This Mosman terraced garden design creates a captivating journey from street to home, with layered planting that provides visual interest from every angle - whether arriving via the winding entry path or viewing the lush landscape from above.
The result is a sophisticated Lower North Shore garden that honors the natural bushland setting while delivering contemporary functionality and year-round beauty.
