This multi-purpose gardener’s haven is the cherry on top of our 2023 Idea House.

While every corner ofour Nashville homeis thoughtfully designed, the backyard has especially captured our hearts.

Its just 107 square feet, but for such a small structure, theshedpacks purpose into every inch.

Its a potting shed, gardeners haven, and anything in between.

One thing it isn’t, however, is a greenhouse.

Itll never get a ton of sun like agreenhouse, explains builderMary Hatcliff.

It doesnt have a glass ceiling or roof.

The exterior also stuns in white (SW7011) with a pleasantly pointed wooden roof.

Its got so much character, says Hatcliff.

Its the perfect little spot.

I love plants, and I could see myself going out every morning to see my little plant babies.

I want one of everything!

Lots oforchids, lots of different kinds of ferns.
