Four Oaks Estate, Sutton Coldfield

This project is a complete external transformation that harmonises perfectly with the elegance of this Victorian house. From carefully selected materials to thoughtful design, every detail enhances the home’s historic charm while bringing a fresh, timeless appeal.

The challenge

This project began with a massive site clearance, removing hundreds of tons of material from the untouched original landscape of this century-old home. The goal was to create a seamless and stylish outdoor space that effortlessly reflected the character of the property.

Achieving this required careful planning and collaboration with the client. Numerous design meetings took place to ensure every detail aligned with their vision to create the perfect garden and driveway. Product selection was particularly crucial—not only did the materials need to look beautiful on their own, but they also had to complement the period architecture of the house.

The solution

The final design seamlessly blended elegance with functionality. A large porcelain patio was installed, carefully chosen to imitate the look of rough-cut stone, maintaining the character of the period property. The design also included large formal planting beds and a spacious children’s play area, ensuring a family-friendly outdoor space.

To enhance accessibility and curb appeal, we created a clay block paved driveway with an in-and-out entrance, complete with stylish gates. A thoughtfully curated planting scheme, along with other bespoke features, added depth and visual interest to the landscape.

The client was thrilled with the finished result, and the Style Earth team truly enjoyed bringing this design to life, from concept to completion.

Style earth recently completed work on our garden and we are beyond impressed. From the first moment when meeting Craig and designing our garden all the way through to installation they were nothing but lovely and professional. Each night the job was left in a tidy manor and everyday the people on site were polite and friendly. The quality of the work completed is outstanding, we couldn’t be happier.
