Oddly Shaped Houses

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Think Glink Media

Anyone who has ever been house-hunting knows that after you see enough houses, everything begins to run togther. When you've visited tons of open houses, it's hard to remember which home was a ranch and which a split-level. But there's always a place that's unforgettable, and it's likely these oddly shaped houses are in that category.

From circle to square to parallelogram, these homes are certain to stick out from the rest. If you're interested, make sure you have a large price range: the houses on this list go from $185,000 to $14.5 million.

In Sarasota, Florida, this five bedroom, five bathroom rectangular home features over 7,500 square feet of living space and offers nice views and high-end finishes. At more than $14 million dollars, it should have all the bells and whistles.

To view the other homes on this list, head to my CBS MoneyWatch blog.

Ilyce -- this looks like one of those homes I saw on "Househunters Intl." where the bathroom had glass exterior walls.  Might be a bit too "exposed" for some folks.

You're right - a bathroom with glass walls might be a little over-the-top for most people.

Sounds nice. Will it be as geometric as these homes?
