You all probably have seen some weird buildings, but today I am going to give you a list of 5 weirdest American private houses.

1. Mushroom House

The Mushroom House, also called Pod House, is located in Perinton, NY. It was built between 1970-1972. In 1989 it was designated a town landmark. The house looks like several mushrooms standing close to one another. 

2. Haines Shoe House

The Haines Shoe House was built in 1948 by a shoe salesman as a form of advertisement. It is located in Hallam, PA. Nowadays it serves mostly as a tourist attraction.

3. Spaceship House

Spaceship House was built in 1972 for the owner's son. It is located near Signal Mountain, TN. This saucer-shaped building is a tribute to space ships of that era. Every single room in the building is round. People or tourists interested in this house may rent it for some time (a week or a month).

Also known as 'the Sleeper House', the Sculptured House is located on Genesee Mountain, CO. It was built 1963 by architect Charles Deaton. It is featured in Woody Allen's movie 'Sleeper'.
