Um, has anybody asked, “What happens as the tree continues to grow? It will eventually break through the framing and joists?”

But perhaps the prospective buyer has a pet monkey or an opossum or something arboreal?

It’s a nice neighborhood.

Yes, they either had cats or monkeys.

Or the branches are there for some kinky thing I never heard of.

I like it! Perfect spot for a hammock to read in or just enjoy the view from.

Why does the closet have metal bars? Maybe one of the previous owners was a werewolf.

I never heard of it; asking for a friend.

In this instance, I see a panel door with shadows???

That said could be bars.

Were you, by chance, in the Navy?

A tree in the bedroom brings for pillow talk when you
are alone.... “I Talk To The Trees”
Paint Your Wagon sung by Clint Eastwood)

House in Texas was built with a tree in the
living room, tall enough to penetrate the ceiling.

House in Vieques with a multi-ton boulder remaining
in the living room, still standing as Nature intended.

Have visited both, however, not duly impressed.

No, but it is common knowledge that Sailors all have a one-track mind.
