"Look at the decking," Marty said in awe.
While Darren was too busy admiring the battened patio ceiling to appreciate the deck yet.
"It's stunning," beamed Marty.
A timber ramp curved off the front deck, leading to a bird bath water feature, and connecting to their curved driveway.
Facing the driveway and taking it all in, Marty had nothing but praise.
"I just love this experience of seeing the driveway roll up and bend and with the trees in the background, it's so grand."
Emma and Ben decided to name their house 'The Hills' and by the judges' reactions, it couldn't' be a more perfect name.
On first impressions Dave loved their front yard.
Dave said the planting was all about matching the colours to the cedars behind.
"Have a look around and you can see all the silver-blues we're getting with the native plants here," Dave pointed out.
"You look up at the back there and that's where it's all matching in. That with the two bottle trees that frame the house, you've got a garden here that's planted perfectly," praised Dave.
"It's pretty hard to beat."
The landscaping expert also pointed out that the planted trees will grow as tall as the native trees you see on the street.
Marty was thrilled to know that would give the house some privacy, knowing it's the corner block.
And can we appreciate these stunning timber steps?
