Own a Piece of Outer World Real Estate

If you've ever wanted to own a home that was truly out of this world, this is your American dream. Pack your bags, you're moving into a flying saucer in a tiny little northern Illinois town. Doesn't that sound just like where an alien family might try to hide?

Someone's dream was to live in a home that resembles a flying saucer, maybe not an alien, so were they a science-fiction fan? Here's what I can tell you for certain, the designers and builders of the "dome home" absolutely have 'out-of-this-world talent.

The Illinois Dome Home

This home took longer than you might think to complete and the details are an interesting read. According to the Zillow Gone Wild listing,

[...] home was masterfully designed by a Montreal-based company and constructed over a 3-year period. Its custom-cut components were delivered in specialized containers along with the Velux windows that were imported from Denmark.
