Whimsical Treehouse

This treehouse, located in Dover, Massachusetts, is nestled 15 feet up in a large old oak tree. The tree house was attached using methods that allow for tree growth and movement. The square, hinged windows were recycled from the main house on the property and the arched windows were salvaged from a historic mansion in Nantucket. The balusters around the deck were cut from small trees on the property. Other elements of whimsy and playfulness, such as the dutch door, bucket pulley system, and crooked lines of cedar roof shingles, were incorporated throughout the project.
