Zillow Gone Wild: 47 Real Estate Listings From Weird to Weirder (2024)

Shelter may be a necessity, but that doesn’t mean it has to be boring! The real estate listing site Zillow has tons of houses for purchase that give us a glimpse into the world of housing architecture. Most are pretty normal. But, the Instagram account @zillowgonewild has found some of the wildest ones.

These creative homes prove that the ambitions of decorators, designers, and architects know no bounds. And, also that some purse strings have no fasteners, and that, boy, are we glad we aren’t their realtor.

Check out the listings below. Just don’t complain to us when you suddenly lost three hours of your life.
