Landscaping in Balnarring
About this area
Balnarring has a semi-rural character, larger blocks, equestrian properties and a landscape aesthetic that sits between the coastal suburbs and the hinterland. It's a quieter part of the Peninsula with a strong sense of place and a growing number of well-resolved residential properties.
Building in Balnarring
Soil profiles in Balnarring vary. Some areas have the volcanic loam typical of the hinterland, others are lighter coastal profiles. Properties are generally larger, with earthworks and planting scopes to match. Wind exposure from the Bass Strait side of the Peninsula can be significant.

"We engaged Michael at Formed to do our native coastal garden. His values, level of care, and commitment to quality were exceptional and not often found in some trades today. He offered to store some totem posts for our design and met us on-site with the landscape designer and provided valuable input into the design, construction and cost, all with no expectation of winning our work. Mike was proactive with his communication, and throughout our project, nothing was ever a problem for Mike or his entire team. The quality of their work was exceptional, and their ability to fabricate and adapt the design onsite as needed provided us with a fantastic landscape garden that we thoroughly enjoy every day."
