8 Hidden Underground Homes That Prove Life is Full of Surprises (2 of 5)

2. Surselva, Switzerland

This is a pretty cool home…if you can figure out how to find it. Nestled into the Swiss hillside, Villa Vals can only be reached by a tunnel through a neighboring barn, which should be the first clue that it is far from an ordinary dwelling. It’s a popular Airbnb rental for both avid skiers in the winter and hiking enthusiasts in the warmer months and includes curving glass walls, polished concrete interiors, a pool table, a hot tub, and four spacious bedrooms. If that’s not enough, the panoramic views of the Swiss mountains should be more than enough to convince you.

3. Springfield, Missouri

From the front, you can hardly recognize that it’s even a structure that people can live in. You just see what appears to be a slab of concrete. But once you venture to the back, your entire perception changes. What you’ll discover is 2,500 square feet of sleek, industrial-modern living! Circular skylights and expansive glass walls provide natural light, which illuminates the exposed concrete and high ceilings. The floor plan features three bedrooms and bathrooms, along with an outdoor patio to chill out in and enjoy the good weather.
