A unique Concord, Ohio home built into a cave-like sculpture has just hit the real estate market for $400,000.
The 3,597-square-foot home features five bedrooms and three bathrooms hidden within its cave walls.

The home also features amenities like a wood-burning fireplace and a two-car garage – and sits on over an acre of land.
Agent Jacqueline Ward of Howard Hanna provided more details about the property in an interview with FOX Business.
The house is nearly 4,000 square feet within the handcrafted sculpture.
The kitchen and dining room are shown inside the Ohio cave house.
“This was absolutely the most interesting entry I have ever accepted,” she said. “And it has a fantastic history.”
The original owners commissioned the property in 1970 because they were looking for a home that “fitted their vision for raising their children.”

“So instead of buying or building, they ended up commissioning a sculpture that they could live in,” she said.
This creation, called “Chant du Cygne,” was created by famed sculptor Wayne Trapp – and according to Ward, it is the largest Trapp has ever created.

The piece has become an “iconic” landmark in the area, Ward said, and has achieved “notoriety.”
The home’s acclaimed status has increased interest from potential buyers, as Ward indicated the ideal owner could use the space for both living and creative purposes.

Agent Jacqueline Ward described the property as “unique”.
“The price is commensurate with what it is,” she said. “It’s unique.”
She added: “It could provide a lot of potential income streams if someone chose not to use it as a residential property.”
Ward said a buyer could use it as a short-term rental or as an “immersion space.”

The property’s “greatest amenity” is the “completely organic” lifestyle it promotes, Ward emphasized.
“All the walls are organically handcrafted,” she said. “At any time of day, depending on where the light falls, the room looks different.”

She added: “If you’re interested in immersion spaces or art gallery spaces or just unique, visionary living, this is definitely a property you’ll want to check out.”

With the 53-year-old structure in need of restorative maintenance, Ward said she hopes someone will “restore it to its former glory.”
She added: “It would be fantastic to see someone bring it back to where it was in the 70s.”
