The 40 Ft Tree House reportedly proposed to be built by J.K. Rowling is essentially any child's dream. As the next best thing to Hogwarts, the mystical land created by Rowling herself where Harry, Ron and Hermione live, this treehouse offers a similarly cozy, amazing feel.
The over $200,000 treehouse is also set to be created out of sustainable materials by Blue Forest, which is evidently renowned for its eco-friendly treehouses.
The treehouses are more like real houses built on stilts. The luxury build is to include two houses that are connected by a rope bridge. Rowling's 17th century Edinburgh mansion's grounds will soon be dotted with little luxury homes for her children to play within.
