Imagine stumbling upon a hidden treasure right in your backyard.
That’s exactly what happened to Amy and Bryant, a couple living in the heart of Ohio.

They found a vast, enchanting cave on their property and, fueled by their adventurous spirit and innovative thinking, they decided to transform it into a home.

What started as a whimsical idea soon turned into a tangible project, and now, they and their three children are the proud inhabitants of a modern cave dwelling.

The journey from a raw, natural cave to a comfortable home was not a walk in the park.
The couple had to call upon the expertise of a geologist and a structural engineer to ensure the cave’s structural integrity.

The construction phase spanned seven months, with a significant chunk of time dedicated to leveling the cave floor and grinding the rock to create flat surfaces for the interior walls.

Despite the labor-intensive process, the couple managed to keep the material costs down, thanks to the natural resources they had at hand.

Their cave home is a shining example of sustainable design.
The front wall, made almost entirely of glass, allows for passive solar heating and floods the home with natural light.

The cave’s south-facing orientation is perfect for maximizing solar heat gain.

And even though it lacks traditional insulation, the cave home is more energy-efficient than a standard home, thanks to the natural insulation properties of the rock.

Step inside and you’ll be greeted by an interior that blends modern luxury with gothic architecture.
The family left no stone unturned in creating a unique and inviting space.

The dining room is graced with a custom-made table and chairs, while the kitchen sports black cabinets and a magnificent hood range with a gothic arch.

The living room, a cozy space with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves brimming with vintage books, is a nod to the family’s love for literature.

The cave home also boasts a pool table area, a feature that Bryant was particularly excited about.
The back wall of the cave, with its natural crevices and formations, is a favorite playground for the children.

The cave’s natural acoustics add a unique touch to the pool games, with the sound of the pool balls echoing throughout the space.

The cave home features two bedrooms, each with its unique charm.
The master bedroom features a king-sized bed, vintage furniture, and a moss wall that adds a touch of nature to the room.

The second bedroom, fondly referred to as the wine bedroom, is painted a deep red to match the natural streaks of color in the cave wall.

This room also includes two Murphy beds, perfect for the couple’s young daughters.

The bathrooms in the cave home strike a perfect balance between luxury and practicality.
The master bathroom features a clawfoot tub and a shower with a glass panel inserted directly into the rock.

The second bathroom, connected to the wine room, serves as the main bathroom for guests.

Both bathrooms feature carefully cut tiles that fit seamlessly against the rock walls.

Looking back on their journey, Amy and Bryant are filled with a sense of pride and gratitude.
The cave home, a labor of love, stands as a testament to their vision, creativity, and determination.

Their innovative approach to home design has not only provided them with a unique living space but also a legacy that they can pass on to their children.

As Amy and Bryant continue to enjoy their unique home (which they also rent out), they serve as an inspiration to others to think outside the box and dare to dream big.
