A unique opportunity is now available for prospective homeowners in Perth, as a social enterprise encourages them to consider a UFO-shaped dwelling. This eye-catching piece of architecture is a Futuro house, designed by Finnish architect Matti Suuronen in the 1960s.
Initially hailed as the pioneering modular home of the future, fewer than 100 of these distinctive homes were constructed, with only a handful remaining worldwide, making them a rare find. In Australia, it is thought that just seven Futuro homes exist, one of which is on display at Tasmania’s Museum of Old and New Art.
Expressions of interest are currently being sought for a completely renovated Futuro home in Perth. Sarah Booth, the director of Spacemarket, has reached out to potential buyers who might be intrigued by this space-age inspired residence.
This unconventional living option invites people to explore a home that transcends traditional architectural norms, merging innovative design with a touch of whimsy. As demand for unique properties grows, this Futuro house offers a rare chance to own a piece of architectural history.
For those interested in living in a home that looks like it’s straight out of a sci-fi movie, this UFO-shaped abode may just be the dream property they’ve been searching for.
