There’s great appeal in creating a functional outdoor area that allows you to congregate, dine and entertain family and friends outside in the warmer months.

And it’s something that reno experts Three Birds Renovations prioritise in their astonishing home transformations.

A perfect example of this is a home the Three Birds renovated in the Sydney suburb of Northmead, which saw the backyard entirely transformed with the construction of an expansive HardieDeck™ fibre cement deck, which creates a clean look to seamlessly connect a stylish interior with the outdoors without any risk of deterioration from the elements.

Explains Lana Taylor from Three Birds Renovations, “In traditional homes you invariably find big backyards, with way more grass than you need and nowhere to sit. Nowadays, people see the yard as an alfresco entertaining area that’s just as important a part of the home as the inside.

“An amazing deck is the bridge between the two.”
