In the realm of playhouses, there are the typical plastic models that dot backyards everywhere, and then there’s the jaw-dropping two-story masterpiece crafted by a dedicated dad for his daughters. Meet Jake Thompson, a skilled builder and the owner of Thompson Construction in Michigan, who constructed a playhouse so enchanting, you’ll want to grab your bags and settle in.
This isn’t just any playhouse; it’s a two-story haven complete with an upstairs retreat and two charming porches adorned with hanging flower baskets. “I wanted to create something extraordinary that my daughters could cherish and proudly tell their friends about,” Thompson shared with Home Insemination Kit. “At a certain point, I thought, ‘Why not go all out?’” He is the proud father of two little girls, Mia, 5, and Lily, 2.
Imagine a design that feels like it stepped straight out of an HGTV episode! If a playhouse was ever styled by a design guru, it would surely resemble this one, with its delightful purple interiors and elegant crown molding. “My older daughter helped me with the crown molding, which was incredibly rewarding,” he explained to ABC News. “She loved sanding it alongside me.”
What child wouldn’t revel in the joy of playing in such a whimsical space every day? The furniture alone is more impressive than many adult dining tables you might find at Goodwill! Jake’s sister, Emily Thompson, a talented photographer, captured stunning images of her nieces enjoying their father’s labor of love.
Jake has received overwhelming praise for his creation, leading him to consider launching a business called “Pampered Playhouses,” specializing in extravagant play spaces for children. “Here’s the playhouse I built for my daughters, and I’d love to replicate this joy for another family,” he posted on his construction company’s Facebook page.
In addition to the beautiful design, Jake made sure to include personal touches that reflect his love for his daughters. This article was originally published on a different date but has been updated to reflect Jake’s ongoing journey.
