Make your house a home: Take advantage of free front landscaping
When you build in Ginninderry, you get something most new home developments don’t offer: free professional front landscaping. It’s a benefit that genuinely sets Ginninderry apart, and it’s worth understanding what you’re gaining before you commit to your next home.
Here’s why front landscaping matters when choosing where to build.
It comes with your home
Your front garden at Ginninderry isn’t an optional extra or an upsell. It’s included as standard for all homes completed according to our Design Requirements and sustainability criteria. That means native plants, thoughtfully designed for your street frontage, professionally installed, at no cost to you.
Think about what this typically involves: landscape designer consultation, plant selection, soil preparation, planting labour. It adds up quickly. At Ginninderry, it’s provided as an add-on to your land purchase. That’s immediate value from day one.
Multiple themes to suit your style
Rather than imposing one generic landscaping approach across the community, Ginninderry offers multiple landscape design concepts. Whether you prefer contemporary native gardens, more densely planted spaces for privacy and wildlife, or designs emphasising flowering species for colour and pollinator support, there are options that suit different tastes and home styles.
You’re not locked into a single vision of what your street frontage should look like. You can explore the available landscape themes, consider what appeals to your aesthetic, and select something that genuinely suits your home and your vision for how you want to live.
Native plants, sustainable by design
The available landscaping concepts prioritise native plants suited to our Canberra climate. These aren’t random selections, they’re chosen to support local pollinators, thrive in our conditions, and require minimal ongoing maintenance once established.
This aligns with Ginninderry’s commitment to sustainability. Native plants reduce water requirements compared to exotic species, support local wildlife, and create streetscapes that reflect and enhance our regional character rather than imposing generic suburban templates.
For homeowners, this means beautiful gardens that don’t demand constant watering, pruning, or replacement. They settle in, establish themselves, and become part of Canberra’s natural landscape rather than requiring ongoing fight against local conditions.
Beautiful streets, thriving community
Front landscaping matters more than you might think. When homes throughout a neighbourhood have thoughtfully designed gardens, something shifts. Streets look established and cared-for rather than newly built and exposed. Properties connect visually rather than standing as isolated dwellings.
This benefits everyone. You enjoy more attractive streets walking or cycling through your neighbourhood. Visiting friends and family see evidence of deliberate community design. Property values across the community reflect streets that feel mature and well-considered rather than standard suburban development.
When you’re evaluating where to build, streetscape quality matters. At Ginninderry, professional landscaping comes standard – not because you’ll pay extra, but because community character and biodiversity in our streets is that important.
A genuine point of difference
When comparing Ginninderry to other Canberra developments, free professional front landscaping with multiple design themes to choose from is worth weighing seriously, and is one of many thoughtful decisions woven throughout Ginninderry’s design.
Combined with native plantings, sustainability features, community spaces, conservation access, and walkable connectivity, these details add up to something genuinely different – a place where your home arrives already integrated into a beautiful, functioning community rather than standing isolated awaiting development.
Is there a catch?
While a free front garden is included with all eligible land purchases at Ginninderry, some conditions do apply. To qualify, your home must comply with the Ginninderry Housing Design Requirements – industry-leading guidelines that promote sustainable home design and create a cohesive neighbourhood character, helping to protect the long-term value of your home – arguably your largest lifetime investment.
