Testimonial | Prebbelton Country Estate
“We would recommend Jade and his team of landscape architects”
“We asked Jade from Eliot Sinclair to undertake the landscape design of our new lifestyle section in Prebbleton. Jade worked collaboratively with lighting specialists, Eliot Sinclair Structural Engineers and Hoogervorst architectural builders, who constructed both our home and the outdoor courtyard. We are really happy with our finished outdoor living space and find it very useable, the materials tie in really well with the rest of our home. We would recommend Jade and his team of landscape architects at Eliot Sinclair to other homeowners looking for an attractive outdoor space.”
