Actually, barrels of houses. They are fun though.
The pickle barrel house — think they ever got the smell out?
The beautiful whiskey barrel house — recycled living in Findhorn Foundation Community.
The worst use of an old barrel ever.
Next the most amazing barrel home of all on the most gorgeous land ever.
Seclusion and beauty in the Mansfield Redwood Preserve barrel house.
I of course want the Redwood home. This home is actually part of an 80 acre plot for sale near Pacific Valley, Big Sur. Complete with four homes, a redwood canyon, waterfalls, and views beyond what you can imagine; this my friends, is the stuff dreams are made of.
For instance… View from the main house hot tub. Holy!
View from the main house.
View of the land from the northwest corner.
Why, oh why did I ever move away from the North Coast? Dumb I tell you. In any case, this land costs a cool $3,500,000 which means I need just a smidge more cash. Guess I won’t be moving too soon.
Unless of course any of you would like to go in on this with me. There are 80 acres after all.
it’s amazing that the redwood home has such an amazing variety of views. I’ll go half-zies on it once I graduate and (never) finish paying off my loans.
This reminds me of a house we see when we go to Coldwater Michigan. It’s right by the lake and it’s not exactly round but it has many sides so it has that round appearance.
We go by it in the boat, and I think it would be the coolest house to own.
Mark ~ I do believe that simply going in half-zies won’t work. We’re gonna need a few more people. It’s so beautiful though. If I ever win the lottery I know where my money is going. Course, I’d have to play to win. Damn.
Linette ~ Round homes, true round or not are cool. Maybe one day you’ll have a dome or something like it
Maybe…:)

Love the round houses!
And, speaking of round houses,
Have you seen William Lishman’s underground house?

They made a movie about the work he does with geese.
