Altadena

Garden View Landscape, Nursery & Pools proudly serves Altadena, California with complete landscape construction and custom pool building—planned and built as one cohesive outdoor environment.

Altadena sits right up against the San Gabriel Mountain foothills, which means many properties deal with slopes, drainage, terracing, and view-oriented layouts. Done well, those same site conditions create incredible outdoor spaces: multi-level patios, outdoor living zones that feel “built into” the property, and pools designed to take advantage of elevation changes when the lot is right.

The Eaton Fire has also changed what many homeowners want from their landscapes: not just beauty, but resilience. In foothill communities, smart outdoor design often includes firescaping principles—better spacing, well-planned irrigation that supports plant health, and more non-combustible hardscape near structures.

Whether you’re rebuilding, renovating, or starting fresh, our design-build approach helps keep everything aligned—from concept and layout through construction—so the pool, hardscape, planting, lighting, grading, and drainage all work together.

A modern Scandinavian Style outdoor patio and pool area at dusk features a wooden deck with two dogs sitting on it. The space includes an outdoor kitchen with a grill, a seating area with a TV, lights hanging from the roof, and luxurious pools with a spa, all beautifully surrounded by trees and landscaping.

This balance between order and organic form can make the structured elements stand out more vividly against the softer, more relaxed backdrop. This particular project embodies this concept by integrating a decomposed granite path that meanders through an informal landscape of boulder walls and timber ties....
