Inside Sir Elton John's new futuristic treehouse home – with indoor tree and private spa

Sir Elton John and David Furnish have treated themselves to a state-of-the art treehouse home in Canada.

The couple, who share two kids, spend a lot of time in David's native Toronto and were no doubt keen to snap up the glam pad.

Dubbed 'The Treehouse', the penthouse offers incredible views of the city and is covered in foliage so residents can feel like they're 'living on a mountain top.'

Inside, the apartment features three bedrooms and bathrooms - and even has an indoor tree.

There are also two terraces, one with a private spa, located off the main bedroom on the upper floor.

In addition to their own facilities, David, 59, and Elton, 75, can also enjoy the complex's communal restaurants, indoor pool and hot tub - as well as a communal party room.

Speaking about purchasing the property, Elton said: "The main reason is to spend more time with my family.

"David's brothers and their wives and children are here. We spend a lot of the summer in Canada," reports the Globe and Mail.

The star also spoke about 'coming off the road' as he winds up his Farewell Yellow Brick Road concerts, which will be his final tour.

The Rocketman singer started the tour in 2018, which will end in Sweden next summer.

Elton performed across the UK in the summer as part of his tour, including a sold-out gig in Hyde Park.

However, the music icon sparked concern when he was seen arriving at Leipzig airport in a wheelchair, just days before his virtual performance for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

After being pictured in Germany, Elton was quick to explain to fans that he was in “top health”.

“The true story is that I’m in top health, loving my shows and playing and singing at my very best," he said.

“After another rousing 2.5 hour show, we arrived at Leipzig airport just before curfew, to find part of the airport had closed.

“It was an extremely long walk to get to the plane, so my team kindly laid on a wheelchair so I could rest my hip after doing the show. That’s all folks.”

In September, the star paid an emotional tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II as he brought his concert in Canada to a standstill.

The singer had initially responded to the news on Twitter, writing in a post that he was "deeply saddened" by news the monarch had passed away, aged 96.

Taking a moment to reflect on the passing of the Queen, Elton told his fans: "She was an inspiring presence to be around - I've been around her and she was fantastic."
