Banstead's charming Victorian terraces and post-war semis often hide surprisingly versatile garden spaces. Those modest back gardens tucked behind the high street hold incredible potential for transformation.

Working with Banstead's distinctive plot layouts requires both creativity and precision. Many properties near the Downs feature narrow side returns or sloping gardens that challenge conventional design thinking. Victorian cottages along the Sutton Lane corridor typically offer 30-40 foot gardens, whilst newer developments around Nork Way present different opportunities entirely. Each space demands its own approach.
Smart zoning transforms even the smallest plot into multiple functional areas. Raised beds maximise planting space whilst creating natural divisions. Gravel pathways wind through herb gardens, leading to tucked-away seating spots. Vertical growing systems climb boundary walls, doubling your productive space without sacrificing precious ground area.
