Flying Saucer House for sale
For Sale: A mountainside home in Tennessee with three bedrooms, two baths, and an entrance staircase that retracts with the push of a button. Perfect for space enthusiasts and would-be astronauts. Must be tolerant of sightseers and gawkers.
The home “landed” on a twisty road leading to Chattanooga’s Signal Mountain in 1970, about the time of the moon landings. The home’s unusual shape — sort of like two white Frisbees pasted together — poses some interior decorating challenges. The curve of the exterior creates a sloping ceiling and short side walls, but there’s also a striking curved bar and custom bathtub.
The house was posted on e-Bay and already has a $100,000 bid. The late Curtis W. King and his family built the unusual home because “they liked to do unusual things”.
