The Story Behind the Luxe 70s Treehouse: A Retro Revival

Far Away & Among the Treetops: How I Found My Dreamy 70s Escape

Some places find you when you least expect them. That’s exactly how this treehouse entered my world—on a whim, during a time when life was pressing pause. The pandemic had slowed the rush of my days, trading in 14-hour office grinds including a commute, for meaty work days surrounded by morning ocean dips, unhurried meals, and the simple joy of a tune as I sipped my wine. I wasn’t looking for a change—I was living it. And yet, the moment I stumbled across this architectural wonder, I knew. This was it.

I didn’t just buy this place—I was drawn to it, like an old storybook calling from the shelf. It reminded me of The Magic Faraway Tree, a childhood favourite where treetops kissed the clouds, adventures unfolded in hidden corners, and life felt limitless. Suspended in the canopy, this home is my real-life Faraway Tree—a dreamy, sun-drenched retreat where floor-to-ceiling windows blur the line between indoors and out, the ocean glimmers on the horizon, and the breeze carries whispers of another time.

This treehouse is more than a home; it’s a time capsule of serenity. A place where laughter lingers in the timber walls, where books are meant to be read in sunbeams, and where the crackle of a fire pit invites you to linger just a little longer under the stars. It’s slow living but make it groovy.

And now, I get to share it with you. Whether you’re here to reconnect, to adventure, or simply to slip into the magic of a bygone era, I hope you find the same joy here that I do.

Welcome to my treetop escape.
