Arizona Pyramid Home!
Arizona Pyramid Home!
Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For SaleTo prove that real estate is never boring, we’ve shown habitable mushrooms, underground dwellings, earthships and everything in between. This is the first pyramid home we know of not inhabited by a deceased pharaoh. Ask five people what purpose they think pyramids serve other than as a tomb for pharaohs, and you’ll usually get five different answers. It’s because no one knows for sure. Speculation has it that the small shaft that opens at the top and travels to the burial room was put there mathematically so that a certain star casts a beam of light onto the pharaoh and will give him a boost upwards into the heavens to his gods. A second idea is that the shape represents the rays of sunlight and yet others claim that extraterrestrials built them with a power source deep in the center that is used to help UFOs navigate. Regardless what you believe, you can now have your own without having to travel to Egypt.
Previously shown on HGTV’s Extreme Homes, this one-of-a-kind custom home is on 13 acres in Maricopa, Arizona . . not Giza. Guarded by two gold statues, the owners are fans of all things Egyptian, with an interesting collection of Egyptian artifacts . . not to mention the house itself. One is surprised to find very attractive living spaces inside its 3,180sf which includes 3 bedrooms, 2 of which are masters and 2 baths. There are 3 levels, open and filled with light. The main level begins 6’ below grade, likely assisting in temperature control, and there is another story on the side which contains a bedroom and an office. The main master is in the peak. In addition we find a large great room, formal dining and king’s chamber containing the artifacts. There are many antique stained and cut glass windows that create spectacular light shows and the huge upstairs patio is the perfect spot for outdoor entertaining and taking in the desert views of Saguaro cactus and mountains. Zoning makes owning horses okay, so horse aficionados will have plenty of room to explore.
