Dick Clark House by Phillip Jon BrownSuperstar host Dick Clark's rockin' home looks like something you might see on an episode of the Flintstones or in a <a href="http://inhabitat.com/extraordinary-off-grid-hobbit-home-in-wales-only-cost-3000-to-build/">hobbit town</a> but it's actually right in California. Recently listed for $3.5 million over on real estate company <a href="http://www.maliburomanticretreat.com/">Coldwell Banker's website</a>, the one-bedroom house is situated on a 23-acre site adjacent to the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, which was deeply opposed to development.
