Landscaping Mount Martha
Landscape Design Built for Mount Martha's Elevated Blocks
Mount Martha takes its name from the granite rise that pushes out into the bay as Martha Point, and that same elevated, established character runs through a lot of the suburb around it. Properties here are often larger and well treed, many built decades ago as grand summer residences before the area filled in with permanent homes. That combination, real elevation change plus mature gardens already in place, means a full landscape design tends to work better than adding one feature at a time.
We plan around the block's actual slope and existing trees rather than clearing space to fit a standard layout. If your Mount Martha property has a rise to deal with or established greenery to design around, get in touch and we'll talk through what a full design could look like.

06 - Pool Landscaping
Pool Landscaping
Bigger, established blocks in Mount Martha often have the room for a pool, and the surrounds need to handle the same elevation and drainage as the rest of the property.
Learn MoreHow We Handle Mount Martha's Elevated, Established Blocks
We've worked on enough properties across Mount Martha to know that the retaining and drainage need to be right before a deck, pergola or garden bed goes in on a block with real elevation change. Because design and construction run through one team, a project bringing together a retaining wall, a deck and a pergola gets planned as a single job rather than handed between separate trades. We're also familiar with what Mornington Peninsula Shire expects around retaining wall height and setbacks on sloped, elevated land, so we can flag early if your project is likely to need a permit.
Ready to Start Your Mount Martha Project
A larger, elevated Mount Martha block can carry more than a single deck or retaining wall built on its own. Planned properly from the start, it can become one connected outdoor space that works with the slope and the established trees already there.
