Nestled deep within the wilds of northeast Oregon, the “Hobbit Hole” is a magical home that looks like something out of a fantasy novel. Built by artist Dan Price, this cozy house represents his quest to live a simple and minimalist lifestyle. Take a look:

Located in Joseph, Dan Price's "Hobbit Hole" is a charming little underground abode.

Straight out of the Lord Of The Rings, this one-of-a-kind home is built into the side of a natural hill.

Inside his home, every inch of space is utilized. Treasured photos, pots and pans, and small gifts fill the walls.

Price says that his studio cost him about $100 to build.

This is a view of the skylight, built into the top of the hill. This provides some natural light.

A composting toilet, a propane-powered shower, office, and a pine wood sauna can also be found on the property.

The hobbit hole is truly a one-of-a-kind space that can only be found in Oregon.
