Gravity-Defying Home Sells for $14 Million

This new property in Victoria, Australia is an interesting piece of architecture. From the side, it looks like two cargo containers one on top of the other, with the top container placed perpendicular to the one below it, and a large portion hanging on both sides, yet it's completely balanced, and has no sign of falling over. The property is called View Hill, and is priced from $13.5 million to $14.85 million.

It was designed by architect John Denton, using the concept of cantilevered minimalist architecture, which is typically seen in bridge construction wherein there is a long projecting beam or girder fixed at only one end. Inside, it has five bedrooms and three bathrooms. The bedrooms are located on the eastern side of the first floor, where the living room, kitchen, and dining room are situated. On the second floor, there are two offices, a powder room, and a wine room. Outside, one has an idyllic view, a 60-hectare vast expanse of grass and vineyards.
