A chance to live in a house made of giant wine barrels

BIG SUR, CA. – Have you ever loved wine so much that you wanted to live in it? Now you kind of can.

A house built from two giant redwood wine barrels in Big Sur has gone on sale for the first time in 40 years, according to Realtor.com.

The two-story house was designed by local architect Mickey Muennig, known as “the man who built Big Sir.” It has been owned by the same family since it was built in 1980 and is currently on the market for $3.26 million.

The estate was built of two wine barrels connected together.
