“At first it looks like a tiny home, but I’m pretty sure it’s part of a larger house that is built into the side of the slope. You can see a metal stovepipe sticking out of the ground nearby.”

Ok here are the last two overlooking the woods in Forest Hills. Some more cool ones later this week but in different sections of Forest Hills. This one has a ton of balconies and windows:
One more house after the jump. (more…)

This unusual home is being built near all the great houses of the day I’ve been showing in Forest Hills.
I’m super intrigued by the walkway:
Pretty wild, yeah? The project is being done by Travis Price Architects. I’ll be sure to update when it’s completed.

Here’s another killer from Forrest Hills. This one could very well be the most unusual I’ve seen in the city.
You gotta check out all the details. Above is actually the back of the house. Below is a shot of the front:

Well, you guys are in store for some ridiculous houses this week. On Saturday I set a personal one day walking record for myself getting completely lost and covering 18 miles. I actually hurt my knee from walking. Who knew you could hurt yourself walking? I think I’ve hit a new low… But back to the point, fortunately I found some of the most ridiculously awesome houses around town. This one is from the edge of the Forrest Hills neighborhood not far from Broad Branch Road, NW.
What do you think of this style?

Well this was a very controversial House of the Day post back in Dec. I was psyched to see it for sale so we could get a virtual tour. If you’re not a big fan of the architecture what do you think of the inside? And how ’bout that pool? It’s yours for $6,500,000.
