Some homes are designed to bring the outdoors inside. But there’s one to be built in Sevierville, TN, that will feature an eye-deceiving design.

Slated to be completed by the end of 2023, the cubed and mirrored treehouse not only blends seamlessly with nature, but it also appears to magically disappear amid the trees of the Smoky Mountains. It is the architectural equivalent of an “invisibility cloak,” the listing notes.

Listed for $635,000 in December 2022, the one-of-a-kind design is now pending sale.

“I love all kinds of architecture, but especially love European architecture as it has more edgy designs,” says the home’s designer and developer, Tim Tipton of Tipton Home Designs.

Ever wonder what MTV’s “Teen Mom” stars are up to now? It turns out, one of them has her own home renovation show.

The new HGTV series “Down Home Fab” stars Chelsea DeBoer, who debuted on “Teen Mom 2” in 2011 at the age of 16 and ended up meeting her husband on the show, Cole DeBoer. In 2020, they built their own dream home in Sioux City, SD, where they’re now raising their four kids. This experience instilled in Chelsea a love for home design, so she now offers up her services to clients, with Cole pitching in as project manager.

“Dream team!” Chelsea cries on the show as she attempts to fist-bump with Cole but misses.

In the premiere episode, “Ranch Glam,” Chelsea explains, “I would describe my design style as very South Dakota glam. I love cowhides, painting things black, anything a little bit different.”

This phrase describes home buyers who’ve purchased property they can’t easily afford—and are now paying the price, as it were.

Translation: If you’re eating rice and beans every night just so you can pay your mortgage, you probably qualify.

As a general rule of thumb, financial advisers tell people to pay no more than 30% of their pretax income on housing—so if you make $5,000 per month, you should spend no more than $1,500 on your mortgage, property tax, and other housing costs. By that benchmark, according to the State of the Nation’s Housing 2017 Report from the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University, nearly 40 million households are house poor in the U.S.
