Garden in Třeboň, South Bohemia

Despite the garden plot not being very large, we managed to fit everything outlined in the client's brief. A large paved area for the driveway to the garage was already in place, along with a rather monumental staircase leading to the entrance of the house. We decided to clear the back garden of temporary vegetable beds and a small greenhouse, creating a space that serves as a relaxation area for the whole family, a spot for sitting with friends, and a play area for children. The back garden offers plenty of privacy, and the much-desired shade under the canopy of the old apple tree provides a peaceful retreat.

The existing garage was extended to include a storage area and an adjoining roofed pergola with an outdoor kitchen. In the corner of the garden, there is ample space for a children's playground. The utility area with compost and rainwater tanks is hidden behind a trellis screen, ensuring it remains visually discreet. The central lawn is open and clear, with the dominant feature being the solitary mature apple tree, under which one can sit or relax on a wooden deck. The sunny garden in front of the house provides ample space for a greenhouse, as well as a more formal area with a bench surrounded by fragrant herb beds.

We are pleased to have created a garden that offers something for every family member, while remaining beautiful and easy to maintain.
