Spring has finally sprung in Canberra, and the combination of rain and welcomed sunshine has produced some truly beautiful gardens here in the nation’s capital.
Just because Floriade is over doesn’t mean that Canberra’s natural beauty has gone with it. Owning a home comes with the opportunity to produce your own display of Australian natives, perhaps your own pocket of tulips, a jaw-dropping hedge set-up and more.
So, without further ado, here are seven Canberra homes up for sale with utterly spectacular gardens for you to live out your Costa Georgiadis dreams or feel that much more inspired.
Grapevines wrap themselves around the outside of this property, and a pergola and tranquillity pond provide further opportunities for owners to make the most of their natural surroundings.
If that wasn’t enough, this home also has a secret garden up a winding pathway from the main courtyard.
