Talk about unusual home, family living in the cave!

cavehouseThe Sleeper family, Curtis, Deborah, and their three kids are living in the cave, literally. It’s a 17,000 square foot gouge in the earth that dates back to a 1930s sandstone mine in Festus, Missouri. Measuring in at 45 feet underneath a forest, this unusual home has to be seen to be believed.

    What a gorgeous home! I guess sandstone must not seep moisture from the forest above. If there were a lake out in front of this, it would probably be my husband’s dream home.

    Wow. First off I have to say you guys with the stupid comments, get of the internet. You don’t belong here.

    As for the house, I’ve always thought it would be really neat to do something like this. I really like it.
