The story of Wandering Tree Estate’s name goes back to when owner Elaine had a desire to construct a swimming pool on her land to be able to relax in during the heat of the Summer. The trouble was, exactly where she wanted her pool a massive tree stood in the way. She scheduled an appointment to relocate this tree, but nobody showed up. Eventually, a call came in to confirm the tree movers had moved the tree. The trouble was it wasn’t Elaine’s tree! The movers had relocated somebody else’s tree by mistake. The hiccup has resulted in one bonus though, and that is provision of a unique name for Wandering Tree Estate.
