Author JK Rowling of the Harry Potter series is planning to build a 40ft high wooden playhouse for her two youngest children. It is estimated that it will cost £150,000 and has been approved to be built in the back yard of her Edinburgh mansion by Edinburgh Council.
It has been designed to mimic the Hogwarts towers and will be installed on silts and boats, turrets, carvings and balconies. The two towers will be linked by a rope bridge, which call also be accessed by a secret tunnel hidden underneath a walkway. Furthermore, one tree playhouse will boast a trap door and fireman’s pole escape, while the other will have its own spiral staircase and slide. Finally the wooden walkway will lead to a giant trampoline that is out of sight. Check out the images below but it’s not too bad for a wooden playhouse.
