Treehouse

A long-cherished wish has come true: my own tree house! On a scaffolding made of pressure-impregnated round rods, it towers eight meters above the forest floor of an overgrown castle park.

Besonderheiten
  • quite high (8m)
  • rustic old tree (poplar)
  • walls insulated with hemp
  • therefore winterproof and no condensation formation
  • Jungle view
  • 10m long stairs
  • on a discarded telegraph pole
  • Old recycling industrial window

From the spacious terrace you can look down on the stream, meadow and fields between the branches of a huge, old white poplar tree. The hut, a timber-framed building made of rough-sawn spruce boards, is insulated against cold and heat with hemp panels. The rear ventilation of the walls ensures air circulation and a pleasant room climate. Spruce three-layer panels line the interior walls. A small, old wood stove that I found at a flea market provides heat and hot tea water. The old steel windows come from a mill building and were equipped with insulating glass. One of the window reveals serves as a comfortable seat.

The double bed made of thuja wood with a spacious bed drawer can be pushed together to form a sofa. A restored old wooden locker from a demolished house provides the necessary storage space. Candles and lanterns as well as lanterns provide cozy lighting for the interior and terrace. The ten meter long larch staircase rests on a disused telegraph pole and leads over a neighboring tree, from which you can reach the terrace via a sloping bridge.
