Lakeshore Luxury

Luxury Lakefront Landscaping in Kelowna, BC

Project Summary

Location: Kelowna, BC
Year Completed: 2018
Project Type: Residential Landscape Renovation & Ongoing Maintenance

This project began as a design-build collaboration with a local luxury home builder and a homeowner who was deeply involved in shaping the vision. The scale was unlike anything typical: dramatic elevation changes from the lakefront dock to the main house, massive boulder installations, ornamental corten steel, and a landscape built to work as hard as the architecture surrounding it. It’s become one of our defining examples of luxury lakefront landscaping in Kelowna.

What’s made it memorable is the relationship that followed. Over seven-plus years of ongoing maintenance and through a change in ownership, we’ve kept the original vision alive while helping the property evolve. That continuity is something we take real pride in.
