Thinking Back A Few Years,

many kids had a plastic 'Wendy House' in the back garden,


well it appears things have come on a tad since my day, photographs Charmed Playhouses, the company is a family business based in Lethbridge, Canada, and claims to build the world’s most fantastic, luxurious and quality playhouses, prices start at a respectable $3,500 for a basic playhouse, but, if you’re looking for something special, the bill can easily go into the tens of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands of dollars,

“We’re currently working on one playhouse that will cost upwards of $400,000,” owner Tyson Leavitt told INSIDER back in 2019. “Many of them range from $100,000 to $300,000.”

Leavitt, who worked in landscaping for nine years before founding Charmed Playhouses, decided go ahead with his “stupid idea” to build luxury over-the-top treehouses and playhouses for children,

“A lot of times clients come to us. They just tell us what they like. We take their ideas, we combine them and they morph into something beautiful by the time we’re done,” Tyson told the Calgary Herald in 2017. “Our entry-level one starts at $3,500 and we’ve done playsets up to $200,000. It really depends on what your budget is and your vision is.”

they can have running water, working electricity, hardwood floors, chandeliers, and custom furniture, among many others features, “We believe that every child deserves a place to play and let their imagination run wild. From slaying dragons to hosting lavish tea parties, every child needs a space to have some fun,” the company’s philosophy reads, what a great way to treat the kids, the only downside is I guess, over here in the UK the houses would never get planning permission!
