What Does It Cost to Live in a Slice of Pie? The Hefty Price of the World's Thinnest House

$315,000 - that's the price you'll pay for the chance to live in an apartment that's just 2.9 meters wide. The famous "Pie House" in Illinois offers living quarters shaped like a slice of pie. It attracts interest due to its unique design.

The house generates a lot of interest because of its unusual architecture. The unique property, nicknamed "The Pie House" due to its triangular shape, has become a local attraction and one of the most recognizable homes in the area over the years.

Built in 2003, it's located in a northern suburb of Chicago. The house's narrowest section is only about three meters wide, while its wider part extends to about six meters. The distinctive appearance, reminiscent of a pie slice, has earned it significant online popularity and among fans of extraordinary architecture.

Despite its modest size, the house offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms spread over two floors. Additionally, it includes a spacious backyard, which is a significant advantage for those looking to blend unique living with a pleasant environment. Local real estate agents say the house draws significant attention due to its unconventional design and its convenient location near schools, parks, and shopping centers.

"It's a house built with maximum space efficiency in mind, yet still manages to maintain a sense of space and comfort," said one of the agents representing the property.

The Pie House isn't the only house in the world to gain fame for its unusual design. In 2018, "The Skinniest House" in New York, with a width of just about 2.9 meters, sold for $3 million. In Japan, too, you can find slender homes built out of the need to deal with urban density and make the most of available space.

Despite its small size, the Pie House offers its future owner not just a place to live, but also an interesting story to share with guests. Will there be a buyer eager to reside in this slice of history?
