77a Muswell Road

The garden is 6 yrs old and inspired by the bedtime story 'The Little Green Gate', that opens onto Fairy Land, told to the owner by her grandfather. The garden comprises three linked decks, all providing a different mood and experience, with a rose arch, wildlife pond, and several green gates. Bugs are encouraged, with architect designed bug hotel, fairies sometimes stay too.

About 77a Muswell Road

The garden was conceived, by the owner and her opera designer friend, Paul Edwards, during long phone calls, endless texts and emails during the first Covid Lockdown. Any time restrictions were lifted, rocks, stones and earth were carted through the house (there is no rear or side access) in the owner’s shopping trolley. Fast forward to 2026 and the garden has changed a little as gardens do – some shrubs lost, but some shrubs gained – and there is always more to do as the owner visits other gardens and gets new ideas. Meanwhile, visitors can enjoy the magic so far, whilst lounging on integrated seating or perched in the Beaton inspired greenhouse. Unfortunately not suitable for wheelchairs due to access to the garden being via stairs through the house.
