Ugly back of house and garden, and ive no idea where to start
Comments (24)So many great suggestions here for you! What a fabulous house to work with. I would extend the pergola out to where the BBQ is, but scrap it. I also suggest replacing the brick paved area with large creamish pavers & use the bricks to pave the path in a bit if a curve. Utilize the curved area for seating widening the steps as suggested. A couple of large pots with citrus either side. These could be planted later as the garden progresses. Also a grape vine or wisteria planted to grow over the pergola would give summer shade & let light into the house in winter. I would screen the granny flat with either a few hardy bushes or a lattice type screen & grow a passion-fruit, kiwi fruit or climbing rose. If you don't like the climbing thing something structural like yucca's or cordylines, both low maintenance - talk to your local nursery, they are the experts. They may offer garden design too. Also have a look at http://plantselector.botanicgardens.sa.gov.au/ Just put in your postcode & you get a list of plants with pictures, descriptions etc. Enjoy your garden room. Good luck....See MoreIdeas for front entrance please
Comments (15)As everyone has suggested, the area is perfect for storage, hanging wet weather gear, umbrellas etc. The bench is perfect for changing shoes. You will have enough room for a large pot plant on the left and a colourful rug that could tie in with what you decide on for a seat. However I am a Capricorn and we are just too practical for words. I would consider myself very fortunate to have such an area....See Morefront entrance ideas

Comments (5)Hi Douglas, great house, love the steps and your renovation is great, you could do something a bit different with your porch cover, screens could look fabulous and they would give a beautiful ambience to the area, timber slats would look great also, you could add clear sheets of laserlite for weather protection also if required....See Morekathandkim
