Knightsbridge homes demand a front garden that looks composed, secure and effortless. Whether you’re near Harrods or bordering Hyde Park, we create entrances that feel intentional—never overdone. From crisp pathways to layered planting and subtle lighting, every element is designed to complement the building. We also integrate practical details like bin storage so the frontage stays uncluttered.
Local properties range from grand mansion blocks to period townhouses and ultra-luxury apartments across SW1, SW3 and SW7. Many front gardens are compact but highly visible, with railings, steps and basement lightwells to work around. We tailor layouts to suit formal façades, portico entrances and shared access points. The result is a frontage that photographs well, wears well and adds value.
We start with a site visit, measured plan and clear specification, then schedule works to minimise disruption to neighbours and building management. Our team handles groundworks, drainage, paving, planting and electrics for lighting with careful coordination. You’ll get tidy daily clean-downs, protected surfaces, and transparent updates throughout. Fine Landscaping is based in Norbury, around 35 minutes away, so support and aftercare are close at hand.
Front gardens in the Knightsbridge area often have restricted access, strict parking controls and sensitive neighbouring properties. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to suit the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea/City of Westminster requirements and local street conditions. Soil can be compacted from years of footfall, so we improve structure before planting and lawns. Where mansion blocks have shared boundaries, we detail walls, fencing and gates to match existing ironwork and stonework.

Larger front garden landscaping knightsbridge area projects involving driveway excavation, drainage, walls and fencing typically need 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on access, curing times for concrete, lead times for materials, and any coordination with building management or neighbours.
Many front garden improvements are permitted development, but there are important rules—especially for new or altered driveways, boundary walls, and properties in conservation areas. Permeable surfacing and compliant drainage are often required to manage runoff. In the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea/City of Westminster, additional constraints can apply to listed buildings and certain streets. We check the relevant guidance and advise on permissions before work starts.
