Landscaping in North Yunderup: what we see

North Yunderup is a small, quiet pocket on the north bank of the Murray near the Peel Inlet — older river homes, some canal lots and bigger blocks with jetties.

Low-lying ground means drainage and levels drive the design. We build retaining and raised beds to lift gardens, use salt- and wet-tolerant planting, and finish with paving and artificial turf for easy care.

Three things to know about North Yunderup yards

  • Low-lying: winter-wet, so raise gardens and set paving falls carefully.
  • Canal-zoned retaining needs Shire planning approval.
  • River frontage — avoid fertiliser runoff; low-P only.
