About 26 Marksbury Avenue

You enter past a carefully designed front garden, with established trees, accented with a sweep of astroturf. The rear garden is New Zealand themed featuring many native trees and shrubs in a very shady setting. Contrastingly, the hot, sunny driveway is full of pots with vegetables and flowers, leading round to a dining area surrounded by more potted specimens. A vine laden pergola leads through to a hidden tranquil lawn, with pathways leading off to a beautiful pond with newts, frogs, toads and fish, and another peaceful secluded dining area next to a sweep of purple beech and black bamboo. Fruit trees abound with plums, figs, apple, red and black currents, apricots, mulberry, feijoa, loquat and citrus, alongside a delicate chamomile lawn watched over by the frantic New Zealand Pukeko, running over the shed roof.
