Sandringham is the bayside suburb where the boats live — the yacht club, the harbour, the strip of cliffs running south.

The homes here lean into that maritime identity: weatherboards, modern coastal renovations, and a clear preference for outdoor spaces that feel breezy and unfussy.

Building outdoor spaces for Sandringham homes

Sandringham’s site conditions are properly coastal: salt exposure, sandy free-draining soils, and the southerly wind funnel that comes off the bay in summer. We design around it — wind-tolerant planting like westringia, correa and coastal banksias; recycled hardwood and limestone palettes; and pool placements that take shelter from the prevailing breeze. A lot of our Sandringham builds also have to handle steep sections, particularly on the cliff-side streets where retaining and stepped terracing become the bones of the whole garden.

Why Sandringham homeowners choose Shoreline

Because Sandringham gardens have to perform in real coastal conditions, and they have to do it without looking like they’re trying. We build the structural work properly underneath — drainage, retaining, irrigation — and let the planting and finishes feel relaxed on top.
