Tour A Stunning Secret Garden In The City!

You could believe this garden is in Florence, not Toronto. Designer Theresa Casey conjures up a romantic European escape in her small, city backyard complete with gurgling stone fountain, bowers, and an artist studio in a converted garage that serves as a creative escape.

So grateful that GREENERY was the focus here and it shows. The space feels like an emerald sanctuary. Outstanding job.

Love the brick walls juxtaposed with the vertical greenery. The water feature is stunning!

It's gone from a backyard to a garden oasis ..wonderful

I used to live in New York years ago and this is the kind of garden I would love to have if I lived in a brownstone house in downtown Brooklyn, NY. It's like an oasis from the hustle of the concrete jungle. It's lovely, private, and feels like a secret garden. I love it. 😌

Bravo. She really achieved the natural garden look. Until I saw the ‘before’ pics, I had no idea what an excellent job she did. How lucky to have her as a neighbour.

Art Studio with a piano and a secret garden. My dream house.

This is so Alice in Wonderland but for a grown up girl...the most beautiful personal intimate secret garden....I am so jealous right now!

A lot of the outdoor spaces on here are meh, but this one is truly spectacular and timeless.

Such a great use of space. SO pretty and tranquil. Well done!

Gorgeous! What a great job. The green 'walls' are magnificent. And I love the bubbling fountain. It's got something about it that reminds me of Amsterdam and Belgium. I think there's a thoughtful, reflective and dare I type it, sombre, melancholy solitary vibe to this courtyard garden. I like it, it PERFECTLY compliments the room that opens out to it. Intelligent, introspective, artistic, stable. This is a homeowner that really knows themselves, is driven by their own idiosyncratic tastes, with aesthetics that are so well integrated with their personality and intelligence and knows how to totally surround themselves with their fully realised style. Immersive!
