People Laughed at His House, Until They Went Inside...

Some

house

s look expensive from the outside. But for others, behind closed doors, some owners have gone to ridiculous lengths and spared no expense to create their scandalous secret homes. Ok, let's not get ahead of ourselves. From hidden hideaways to

house

boats, today we'll explore some hidden and unique homes that are much more than

they

seem from the outside. Make sure you stay until the end; You'll never guess what's hidden inside the final house! MISSILE SILO HOUSE Believe it or not, but some time ago ballistic missiles were launched from here and now someone lives in this place. The house and former missile silo located in upstate New York claims the position of the most secure and unusual underground house in the world.

In this 52-foot diameter silo, there is a living quarters, a bedroom, a kitchen, and all the other basic facilities one would need to survive 40 feet underground. In order to have this house for personal use, its owner spent $160,000 to purchase it as well as an additional $140,000 to restore it... not bad considering it will protect you from a nuclear attack or worse, a zombie apocalypse. If you thought that buying a silo is not the most profitable investment, you are probably wrong. This concrete cylinder in which the house is located can last several centuries. But unfortunately for us, it's off the market and I doubt it will be off any time soon.

CASA BRUTALE In 2015, Casa Brutale design images

went

viral and set the internet on fire. Now, this fascinatingly unique concept may be just minutes away from becoming a reality. Now I have to remind you that what you see here are rendered images, basically a computer-generated walkthrough of the design. But despite that,

they

are currently working on a striking resemblance to a villain's lair and practically his dream house. The 3,000-square-foot, six-bedroom design is organized around three large concrete slabs with an underground garage for three and a rooftop pool made of reinforced glass that sits above the main entrance.

Swimmers can look down into the main living space which is clad in glass and concrete but accessed via the main staircase. In 2016, architecture studio OPA announced that the internet's favorite architecture project had found a client and would be built as a house at an altitude of 1,600 m on Mount Faqra, outside Beirut. The entire project will reportedly cost approximately $2.5 million and we are currently waiting for it to be completed as we speak. KNIGHTSBRIDGE HIDDEN HOUSE You could be forgiven for walking past this simple white wall and small door in Knightsbridge, London. But what if I told you that over $2.3 million was spent on renovations in 2016?

Would you consider it money well spent? Well, you might change your mind once we take a look inside. What used to be two workshops and a commercial space was remodeled and reinvented into what is now known as Hidden House. Spanning over 2,100 square feet, this three-story, three-bedroom family home is a perfect example of innovative, cutting-edge architecture. It took LTS Architects just under 16 months to complete the design and build at a cost of $2.3 million. Their biggest challenge was the limitations imposed by the city council and neighbors. The owner of the adjacent building demanded that any renovation could not include a second floor.
So if you can't build up, build down! Beneath this simple white wall lies an open-plan kitchen, living and dining room, a mezzanine study hidden within the roof pitch, while the basement houses three luxury bedrooms. Looking at this white house hidden in Knightsbridge may seem ridiculous at first, but that's why you should never judge a book by its cover! FREEDOME COVE T

went

y-five years ago, Canadian-born artists Catherine King and Wayne Adams realized they would never have enough income to afford real estate, so they made a rather radical decision: they decided to build an island. The result was a unique island house surrounded by a garden, today known as Freedom Cove.
It is located on a lake in the Canadian province of British Columbia and generally consists of 12 interconnected floating platforms that house the different rooms along with the garden, workshop, sculptures, art gallery and even a dance floor. Adams estimates the entire structure weighs around 500 tons and says the entire thing was built with a hand saw and hammer without the aid of power tools. While the first two homes on our list had all the amenities, Freedom Cove, on the other hand, is not a luxury experience. Wayne fishes for dinner, while Catherine oversees the extensive garden operations. Off-grid, there is no electricity, running water or refrigeration connected on the island.
The structure used to be powered by 14 solar panels, but Adams and King recently had to convert it to a small Honda generator when the panels broke down. The rain and a nearby waterfall are the source of hydration for the couple and their two children. The abode is completely off the grid, off the land and, according to its owners, definitely off the market. There go my hopes of living in peace and solitude. EDGELAND HOUSE Another case of understated façade, blink and you might miss this house cleverly hidden between two scruffy hillsides. What looks like a divided hill from the outside is actually a contemporary reinterpretation of an ancient Native American Pit House.
Like the traditional house, the Edgeland House is sunk two meters deep into the ground, achieving comfortable thermal stability and a rather cool appearance. Inside the house you will see a glass-surfaced crack that forms between two peaked roofs. in the ground. These two volumes house the interior rooms (divided into living room and bedroom) on either side of the exterior walkway, which descends from the access road and leads to a wedge-shaped pool. Edgeland House is located in a brownfield where steps are being taken to heal the local ecosystem. Perhaps this is a sign that there will be green solutions in the future that could help the planet?
Or maybe just some owners who don't want to be bothered at all times. SECRET UNDERGROUND HOUSE Typically associated with doomsday survivors or remote mining towns, underground homes seem to be the latest trend in prestige real estate. A mansion in the northwest of England shows how far the underground luxury market has come. "Perdu" or "Lost" in French, as it is called, is quite small and unimpressive from the outside. The entrance to Perdu is above ground, in the form of a small garden surrounded by perfectly trimmed hedges. As you enter through the upstairs porch, you'll be quite surprised to learn what's underneath.
The living room spirals around this atrium, allowing natural light to illuminate the living areas, including the kitchen and reception area on the ground floor, as well as the master suite. The rest of the house includes two more bedrooms, a jacuzzi, a gym and even an underground pool that remains even further down and underground. In fact, there's even a slide that takes you from the master bedroom to the jacuzzi. The house also has environmentally friendly features such as rainwater harvesting, a heat exchange system and hot water that is heated with the help of solar tubes. Eco-friendly and luxurious?
That's a 10/10 from me! The current price is a staggering $6 million, but for this kind of luxury, you can see why!
