Carport and Front Entry Mt Gravatt East

Our  clients were looking to change the front facade of their house so it had a more modern aesthetic.  The idea was to provide a functional aspect as well as adding street  appeal.

The front of the property was sloped down to the house with only a single driveway and no carport or retaining walls. Part of the transformation was to remove a significant amount of dirt during the excavation process, this enabled us to create a base for the carport and lower the yard making it more family friendly

Adding a double carport to suit the families need for undercover car parking, we included a panel lift door for security, and finished the driveway in a complimentary exposed concrete mix. 

The yard was retained with concrete sleepers and the new fencing offers  as privacy and is low maintenance.

The front entry feature wall and block retaining walls to the entry path add different textures and have been finished in a combination natural stone cladding and smooth render.  The  stepped tiled entry pathway completes the look.

The aluminium gate also adds another low maintenance feature to the inviting front entry.

Though the use of different materials and textures and lots of lighting this home now has the modern look the owners wanted as well as  the functionally they needed.
