Work commenced on this almost 1000 square metre property in April 1975 and has continued unabated since, with many changes over the intervening years.

The front garden consists of four terraces with the bottom terrace featuring a gabion wall and the top terrace strongly influenced by the owners travels in Asia.  Of particular note are the Torii gate, spill bowl and 15 Japanese maples of different varieties, which turn to splendid reds and oranges in autumn.

The enclosed private back garden consists of a series of outdoor rooms – a back deck off the house with spa; an entertainment area off the guest studio; lawn area, with dry stone creek and green walls; a Mediterranean style courtyard; a Silver Birch forest; and a Fernery. There are over 200 containers of plants around the property, 92 trees and 7 water features, amongst other items of interest.

The whole property is supported by a drip irrigation system with 5 water tanks (13,500 litres)
