Monkey puzzle trees

Hello,
Does anyone know whether there is such a thing as a dwarf/miniature version of the monkey puzzle tree? We'd really like one for the garden but a regular one would in time have to come down (one day in the distant future) because our garden simply couldn't take the size it would become and I simply cannot bear the thought of that ever happening!
Thanks!

You could try keeping in a container and root prune every other year depends on how keen you are. There was one up the road from us that was planted in the front garden of a terraced house and was taller than the house and only a few feet from the windows. They do drop their lower braches though so at least you could get to the front door!
