Architectural Landscape
Construction in Hawthorn

Architectural landscape construction across Hawthorn, from the Victorian and Edwardian frontages near Glenferrie to the architect-led rebuilds on the streets above the Yarra.

One in-house team from first consultation to final handover. Not three trades stitched together at the end.

In Hawthorn

A garden that holds a Hawthorn frontage.

Hawthorn is one of Melbourne's most established inner-eastern suburbs, dense with Victorian and Edwardian homes, heritage streetscapes and a strong run of contemporary work behind period facades. Blocks can be tight and layered, and gardens often have to resolve a heritage frontage, a level change and a modern extension in a single, coherent move.

We deliver that as one piece of work. Levels, drainage and structure are set against the architecture from the first excavation, and hardscape and planting are detailed to bridge the period frontage and the contemporary rear. The result reads as one considered landscape rather than two eras stitched together.

Common questions

Landscape construction in Hawthorn.

Can you work on tight, heritage-fronted blocks in Hawthorn?

Yes. Many Hawthorn blocks are compact, layered and carry heritage overlays, with access and level change to resolve on a small footprint. We plan the sequence, access and structure around those constraints from the first excavation, and coordinate with your consultants so the landscape is delivered cleanly despite the tight site.

Do you work across Hawthorn?

Yes. Hawthorn sits inside our core eastern and south-eastern service area. We deliver architectural landscape construction, commercial works and builder external-works packages across Hawthorn and the surrounding suburbs.

Is it one team or subcontractors?

One in-house team. Landscape, construction and earthworks all sit under one company with a single line of accountability, so the work resolves as a single piece rather than three trades stitched together at the end.

Where can we see your work?

Our portfolio includes recent residential work in North Balwyn and Sunbury and commercial grounds at Mernda Hills and St James, Vermont. Every project shown is real ANKS work.
