When you’re building your dream home, it’s natural to focus on the floor plan, finishes, and interiors. However, one crucial element often gets overlooked—your landscaping. A well-planned landscape can completely transform your property, making it both more functional and beautiful.
If you’re building in Mosman, the North Shore, or the Northern Beaches, setting aside around 15% of your total build budget for landscaping is a smart decision. This investment will pay off in both lifestyle and long-term value.
At Abloom Landscapes, we specialise in landscape construction and garden maintenance across Sydney’s Northern Beaches and North Shore. Here’s why we recommend including landscaping in your budget from the very beginning.
- Boost Your Curb Appeal
Your front garden is the first thing visitors see, so make it count. A professionally designed landscape instantly elevates your home’s appearance and creates a warm, welcoming impression.
This is especially important in prestige suburbs like Mosman and the North Shore, where well-designed gardens help your property stand out.
- Increase Your Property Value
Investing in landscaping is not just about aesthetics—it also adds measurable value to your property. Homes with carefully designed outdoor spaces consistently achieve higher valuations.
Whether you plan to stay long-term or eventually sell, creating a beautiful and functional outdoor environment is a smart financial move.
- Create Functional Outdoor Living Spaces
A thoughtful landscape design extends your living space beyond the walls of your home. For example, you can include:
- Alfresco dining areas
- Paved courtyards and pathways
- Lush lawns for children and pets
- Fire pits or seating zones for entertaining
In sunny locations like the Northern Beaches, outdoor living is a key part of the lifestyle. Therefore, planning versatile spaces will make your home more enjoyable year-round.
- Enjoy a Sustainable, Low-Maintenance Garden
A well-constructed landscape does more than look good on day one. When planned properly, it will thrive for years to come.
At Abloom, we design with sustainability and ease of upkeep in mind. In addition, our garden maintenance services keep your garden looking fresh and healthy throughout the seasons.
Plan for Landscaping Success
Too often, landscaping becomes an afterthought, squeezed into the end of the build with whatever budget is left. Instead, involve your landscaping team early in the process.
Working with experienced professionals from the start ensures that your outdoor areas complement your home’s design and suit your lifestyle.
