Landscaping for High-End Knockdown Rebuilds In Geelong
Elevate Your Custom Home Build.
Transitioning your custom home build from a construction site to a designer sanctuary. Specialising in high-end residential landscapes across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast.
The Knockdown Rebuild Landscaping Specialists
In Geelong’s most established suburbs like Highton, Newtown, and East Geelong, the "Knockdown Rebuild" has become the gold standard for luxury living. You’ve invested heavily in a custom-designed home; now, you need a landscape that matches that architectural ambition.
At Focus Landscaping and Design, we specialize in the complex requirements of established-suburb builds. With a background that spans elite Australian sporting grounds and years of experience delivering high-end residential projects in the Perth and Fremantle luxury markets, Matt and his team bring a "prestige-standard" finish to every Geelong backyard.
Navigating the Challenges Of Established Sites
Unlike new estates, knockdown rebuilds in Highton or Newtown come with existing constraints. We specialize in turning these challenges into design features:
Complex Site Levels & Grading
Older blocks rarely have the flat "slab" profile of a new estate. We are experts in structural retaining walls and tiered landscaping that maximize your usable land.
Architectural Integration
Whether your new home is a ultra-modern concrete masterpiece or a refined Hamptons style, we use premium materials—natural stone, hardwood, and architectural lighting—to ensure the garden feels like a natural extension of the house.
Neighbourhood Character
We design gardens that respect the leafy heritage of Geelong's established streets while providing the modern, low-maintenance lifestyle you moved in for.
Preserving Site Integrity
We manage drainage and soil health carefully to protect your new foundation and any existing mature trees or boundary features you’ve chosen to keep.
The Luxury Market Standard ($10k - $50k)
Having worked in the high-end markets of Western Australia, Matt understands that "quality" isn't just about how it looks on day one—it's about the precision of the construction.
Structural Excellence: From reinforced sub-bases for paving to precision timber joinery on decks and pergolas.
Advanced Planting: Selecting semi-mature specimens that provide immediate privacy and "instant garden" feel for your new home.
Precision Irrigation: Custom-designed systems to protect your investment through Geelong's dry summers.
