Last year we featured the dreamy tropical treehouse built by Kristie Wolfe. And again, there is a spectacular creation by the DIY enthusiast named Underground Hygge. Situated at one of the mountains at Columbia River gorge near Chelan, Washington, it is a one-of-a-kind dwelling that is buried in the ground and features a small round door which depicts it like a hobbit-hole house.
Lately, the Hobbit house was listed in Airbnb for people to experience the life in shire. It is located on a beautiful countryside location, and has a number of architectural details mostly from wood and stone.
The house measuring 288-square-feet is built on a foundation with gravel and plastic. Thereafter, treated lumber & sheeted plywood is used to create an extraordinary shape. Its exteriors are made mostly using reclaimed materials, giving it a country home appeal. It is interesting to see how creatively leftover spaces around the door are used as storage units.
The roundish hobbit-hole door in front of the stone-paved patio welcomes inside. As you enter inside, a rock-stone crafted propane fireplace stands next to the rustic wooden shelves and beautifully blends with cordwood floor. Wood crafted lighting fixtures and candles are used to brighten the space; although, LED lighting is also included. There are port windows to peak outside while the main door can be left open to let in natural light.
