The original backyard lacked structure, purpose, and connection to the surrounding waterfront setting. Our approach focused on maximising every square metre of usable space while creating a seamless flow between entertaining, dining, and relaxation zones.
A custom outdoor kitchen became the centrepiece of the design, paired with expansive paved entertaining areas, integrated seating, and open lawn space to create a versatile environment for hosting and everyday living. Carefully considered planting and layered hedging introduced privacy and softness while framing uninterrupted harbour views.
Natural materials, clean architectural lines, and a restrained planting palette were used to complement the waterfront
setting and deliver a timeless outdoor aesthetic. The result is a resort-style backyard that feels open, inviting, and highly functional — transforming a neglected space into a premium outdoor living experience overlooking Sydney Harbour.

Nothing but the best from Glenn and his team!
Glenn, Dan and Miles have done an amazing work on our outdoor. Outcome was much better than what we could have asked for. Very meticulous people with an impeccable care factor. Would definitely use them again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to our friends and families.
Glenn and Dan did a great job on our courtyard. Their attention to detail was amazing and the finished product was more than we had hoped for. They have a genuine passion for what they do and deliver quality outputs. Would definitely use them again.
How do I start?!
Impeccable! A wonderful, professional, warm, over and above service, exceptional experience.
Right from meeting Glenn and Noah at the beginning right through until their last day. Both these guys are true professionals, can be trusted and demonstrate 100% integrity.
It started with landscaping our front yard first needing to redo a new pathway to our front door, an area to store our motorbike and scooter, garden bed and a beautiful outdoor garden bed wall across the second floor of our
home. All of it was done with ease, care and careful insight.
Next was our backyard. We already had a lovely pool but the space wasn’t entertaining at all and our current deck was eroding. We had the wrong plants and trees which took up far too much space and our pool shed and heater were exposed (which wasn’t great!).
After several discussions and careful planning the backyard reno began. It was managed carefully as we had our family dog to consider too. New ideas were introduced by Glenn along the way for our consideration and we accepted them. Which turned out fantastic.
Overall I can’t fault these guys at all. We got to know them well, practically became part of our family and can’t recommend them highly enough.
I couldn’t be more impressed with the exceptional work delivered by Sydney Grandscapes. Glenn is an outstanding landscaper with a true eye for design and meticulous attention to detail. From the outset, he was professional, approachable, and incredibly easy to work with, making the entire process seamless and enjoyable.
Glenn and his team executed the project to an exceptionally high standard. His expertise spans across design, structural landscaping, construction, and project management, and this was evident at every stage. He brought
creative vision together with practical execution, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and long-term functionality.
The end result exceeded my expectations, and I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome. It was a genuine pleasure working with Glenn, and I would highly recommend Sydney Grandscapes to anyone looking for quality, professionalism, and a truly outstanding landscaping result.
