Landscaping in Red Hill
About this area
Red Hill sits in the hinterland of the Peninsula, cooler, wetter and with a distinctly different character to the coastal suburbs. Agricultural land, wineries and significant rural properties define the area. Landscape projects here often respond to a very different brief, managing large areas, working with existing vegetation and farmland, and creating spaces that connect to rather than contrast with the land.
Building in Red Hill
Red Hill's clay-based volcanic soils behave differently to coastal sandy profiles. They are fertile but can be slow-draining and reactive. Water management and drainage planning are critical. The cooler climate extends the growing season for some plants and limits others. Properties are typically large, with earthworks scopes to match.
