Landscaping in Wannanup: what we see

Wannanup is squeezed between the Peel Inlet, the ocean and the Dawesville Channel, and includes the Port Bouvard canal estate. Homes range from older fibro beach shacks to large modern canal houses with boat pens.

Canal homes want low-maintenance, high-finish landscaping: exposed aggregate, limestone feature walls, artificial turf, architectural planting and lighting. The older streets are more about replacing worn-out lawns and retaining, and dealing with blocks that step down towards the water.

Three things to know about Wannanup yards

  • Port Bouvard: planning rules and retaining near canal walls — we handle the approvals.
  • Channel breezes are constant: pots and screens need weight, plants need salt tolerance.
  • Plenty of sloping blocks stepping to the water — terraced limestone walls are common.
