Back in 2009, one of the most peculiar homes in America turned up on eBay, with a starting bid of $300,000. The 15,000-square-foot property, which included a living room/bathroom and three bedrooms, was located in Festus, Missouri—and cut into the side of a mountain. Did we mention there was a family living in it?
What I'm trying to figure out is why there is a patio umbrella over the table - does that mean there are bit and pieces of whatever continually falling from the ceiling?
No, because I know someone who lived in house built into a hill and snakes laid eggs in her walls. They hatched and her house was overrun by them. I have nightmares about that to this day and she wound up selling it for a loss.
No, because of stale air and no ventilation. Not to mention claustrophobic. And I agree with previous posts, also because of drippy water and snakes and spiders. The idea gives me the creeps.
No way. The longest I ever spent in a cave was in a restaurant in Mexico, in a huge cave near the Teotihuacan pyramids. It was cool and atmospheric but after an hour or so I wanted out.
Never mind the snakes and spiders, just the cold and damp alone would put me off. Not to mention no windows. But if there were a nuclear holocaust, living in a cave might have some advantages.
