Treehouse's are no longer a simple pallet in a tree. [Amazon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/where-the-polka-dots-roam) Treehouses are taking homes in trees to new heights. Designed By Gordon Brown, the treehouses are not just for children, they're for the big kid in all of us.

The *[Cedar Spire](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dune-houses)*, a [fairytale-inspired](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/storyliving-community), two level castle built in a 500 year old cedar tree in an estate in Scotland and is one the most stunning privately owned treehouses in the world. The *Monticello Treehouse*, an adult retreat, was inspired by an Italianesque house in Charlottesville, USA, designed by Thomas Jefferson.

Everyone, whatever their age, deserves a special place in which to dream. A place of adventure, fun and make-believe for the young, or a haven of peace and tranquility for the escapist in all of us.
