This is very cool... If you have a spare $700,000, and don't mind living in Bend, Oregon, there's a community-based, green-construction development going up with houses based on Tolkien's Shire.
Okay, very loosely based. As any self-respecting Hobbit knows, proper houses are built by digging into the sides of hills, are constructed in tunnels rather than with walls and roofs, and have round doors, not standard-issue rectangular ones.
But if you can get past that, the houses do look fantastical.
