Something for my next letter to Santa....a treehouse in a Costa Rican Eco-Community. I will probably regret putting this up as it deserves to be hidden but alas, has already featured in the likes of Outside magazine, Inhabitat.com, Travel Gear (online) as well as other US publications.
Located on the base of an almost 6,000 foot primary rainforest mountain on the South Pacific Coast of Costa Rica and is bordered on the North by Rio Piedras Blancas and Rio Bellavista to the South, Finca Bella Vista is exactly as the name states, Beautiful Forest Home.
Treehouses are built in the canopies with land below starting at 2-3 acres. A small price to pay for land and a beautiful unique home in comparison to expensive, polluted city living.
Here you can literally sleep amongst the trees with trunks snaking through your floor boards and up through the ceiling - almost unsure of which came first, the tree or the treehouse, and dine alfresco with neighbours on a deck 50feet above the forest floor.
My ultimate dream of living in a tree on a beautiful remote spot somewhere where the air is clean and nature creeps into every possible area of life, may finally be realised. If no sight or word from me you know where I have disappeared to.
