Michigan 'Mushroom House' is on offer for a cool $6.4 million

A quirky “Mushroom House” has gone on the market in Michigan.

While most Aussies are struggling to find mushrooms in their local supermarket, a home owner in the United States took their love of the humble vegetable to a whole new level.

Listed by Berkshire Hathaway Home Services and represented by agent Nate Granata, the seven-bedroom property is expected to sell for a cool $US4.5 million ($6.4 million).

The unique abode covers 6,000 square-feet and is referred to as “The Thatch House” due to its signature roof.

American architect Earl Young designed the original seven-bathroom home back in 1918.

He was known to source stone for his multiple properties throughout Northern Michigan.

However, the new owner dreamed up a new aesthetic, drawing a thatched roof onto a napkin.

The design concept took nearly two years to come to fruition and saw thatch being imported in from Europe.

Interiors reflect Young’s original aesthetic with stone fireplaces and staircases, along with the timber joinery and benchtops in the living areas, kitchen and bathrooms.

Timber floorboards in a rich chocolate tone, along with the new owner’s choice of plush textiles in bold hues, provides a warm and inviting feel to the estate.

The bespoke house has understandably become a viral sensation on Instagram.
