The garden is, and will always be, one of the most important features of a house.
Having your own outside space allows kids to play freely, parents to relax in the sunshine and treasured family memories to be made. And since the outbreak of coronavirus, which is keeping everyone safely tucked away inside their homes, appreciation for gardens has skyrocketed.
When designing the perfect family garden, we work with multi-award-winning landscape architects and long-term Altin partner, Barnes Walker.
Their 30 years’ experience, combined with our high-quality craftmanship, has led to the ultimate collection of family gardens across our Bijou portfolio, including Bank Farm Grove, our latest luxury development in Holmes Chapel.
High function and high design
When designing the perfect family garden for young children and sophisticated adults alike, the importance of creating a luxury feel in a practical outdoor space is fundamental. Everything needs to sit in complete harmony – where one element does not disrupt the other.
Each Bank Farm Grove home has high-quality design at its core. Upon pushing open the front door, natural light leads guests through to the open plan living and kitchen area, with full-height bi-folding doors revealing a patio that’s perfect for al fresco dining.
Additionally, the hard materials used in the gardens complement the colours of each house’s external features to create a blended look between structure and surroundings.
These impeccable details are balanced out with a luscious and plentiful turfed area that accommodates relaxation or all kinds of fun lawn games for kids.
Privacy is paramount
As with any family garden, an element of privacy and personal space makes it all the more special.
All Bank Farm Grove gardens are fitted with contemporary wooden fencing, including matching timber gates, to provide each homeowner with a fully enclosed space that is completely theirs.
Similarly, bespoke metal railings or hedges are used to separate plots out front, protecting the well-kept lawns and planting beds in strips alongside the garden boundaries.
Six homes, one community feel
Bank Farm Grove comprises six grandiose, four-bedroom family homes situated in the heart of the Cheshire countryside.
While each property is unique in style, as well as remaining blank canvases for each family to personalise according to their own individual tastes, there is a strong sense of fluidity and consistency throughout the properties.
This, in turn, transforms the cul-de-sac into a close-knit community of families.
We can’t invite the neighbours round at the moment but the children can play on the green grass, and you can sip drinks while taking in the tranquil summer evening – all in the garden of your new, luxury home.
