Huell Howser’s California House is Perched Atop a 150-foot Volcano — and it’s Now Up for Sale!

PBS legend <a href="http://www.calgold.com/about.asp">Huell Howser</a> (of <a href="http://www.calgold.com/">California's Gold</a> fame) has just put his spectacular Volcano House in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newberry_Springs,_California">Newberry Springs, California</a> up for sale. The three-bedroom, three-bathroom domed home sits atop a 150-foot volcanic cone on a 60-acre plot in the middle of the desert. If you ever wondered what it'd be like to live in a <a href="http://inhabitat.com/space-age-solar-powered-pod-house-unveiled/">space-age home </a>surrounded by a stark Mars-like landscape, here's your chance -- just be ready to drop $750k for this piece of iconic architecture (and volcano!).

The Volcano House was originally built back in 1968, and designed by architect Harold J. Bissner Jr. Measuring 1800 sq ft, the main house has two bedrooms and two baths and open entertaining areas.

The <a href="http://inhabitat.com/stealth-barn-is-a-striking-black-guest-house-converted-from-a-plain-barn/">guest house </a>has one bedroom and its own private lake.

The house is sited near Interstate 15 (near Barstow) and the surrounding area offers quirky attractions, including the Buffalo Ranch, Big Al’s Pistachio Ranch, the Ostrich Farm and the Bagdad Café.

A central fireplace provides a focal point for the abode, and a sunken conversation pit gives away its mod-arch, 1960s roots. A fully-equipped kitchen sits to one side of the space and is constructed to feature classic wood cabinetry.
