Real Estate for Children, the New Gift for Rich Kids

The Orange County real estate craze gets a youthful injection as wealthy parents begin buying custom playhouses for their children.

COSTA MESA, Calif. (PRWEB) October 10, 2005 -- Move over Tickle-me Elmo, Playstation PSP and all the other must-have gifts for kids, now wealthy Orange County parents are stepping up their game and giving gifts of real estate. Custom playhouses have become the new gift to give for many Southern California parents.

And it is not just parents buying into the trend. In their quest for the perfect gift for their granddaughter, Gene and Mary Jane McHugh of Costa Mesa chose to have a custom playhouse built for seven year old Ashley. "We wanted a place for Ashley to have fun independently, but within our view," remarks Mary Jane McHugh. They selected OC Playhouses, a unique home services company that builds custom playhouses in addition to offering standard home maintenance services – carpentry, crown molding, tile and more. Ashley's Beach Shack boasts features like vaulted ceilings, a front porch, dual pane vinyl windows, a tiled floor and a built-in desk for homework. "We were very pleased with the professionalism and quality workmanship of OC Playhouses and the design of the playhouse matches the design of our home," adds Gene McHugh.

Owner Brandon Gaidano works with each client to design a playhouse to their exact specifications. A custom playhouse from OC Playhouses typically takes 30-45 days to complete and can range in cost from $9,000 up depending on layout and design complexity.
