Your property. One coordinated plan.
A landscape that belongs to your home.
A Lytton Park project can coordinate new stonework and outdoor living around an existing house and garden. Identify retained trees, entrance details and useful paving before planning demolition. When access is tight, include the excavation and delivery route in the first concept so the proposed pool or terrace can be built without relying on unconfirmed neighbouring access.
Landscape architecture
Coordinate the arrival, garden rooms and circulation through landscape design. Explore a complete vision for estate living.
Pools & outdoor living
Connect an in-ground pool with its terrace and a cabana or pavilion, with access and support spaces planned together.
Driveways & stonework
Bring estate driveways, steps, terraces and retaining walls into a coordinated material and grading plan.
Before construction
Make retention part of the construction plan.
Identify the trees, planting, masonry and existing surfaces you want to retain before drawing new features. Record the route for excavation and deliveries as carefully as the finished garden. Obtain appropriate tree or site advice where work could affect retained features, then include protection and restoration in the proposal. Keeping a feature on a drawing is only the beginning of preserving it through construction.
- Retained features marked on the plan
- Measured access widths and overhead obstructions
- Protection areas and permitted working space
- A defined restoration scope after heavy work
Questions for your project
Resolve the important details early.
Can we retain mature planting during reconstruction?
Often some elements can remain, but protection and access must be planned before work starts. Identify the retained areas in the scope and obtain appropriate tree advice where excavation could affect roots.
What should we provide for a meaningful project discussion?
Share your address, photographs of the garden and construction access, a survey if available, the features you want to retain and your priorities. An intended budget range and timing help define the scope. Ask proposals to distinguish preparation, construction, finishes, allowances and restoration.
Feasibility and any required reviews depend on the address and proposed work. Confirm the applicable municipal and site requirements before treating a concept as an approved construction plan.
