Situated nearly 9,000ft above sea level in the midst of in Italy’s sprawling Dolomite Mountains, is this extraordinary home embedded in the side of the rockface.
Buffa di Perrero's bizarre location has puzzled people for decades - while others speculated how on earth removal men could ever make it up there.
But remarkably, the impressive property is believed to have been constructed over 100 years ago during World War I.
Savvy Italian soldiers are said to have built the shelter for a place to rest while battling the Austro-Hungarians across the rugged terrain.
They would have used the concealed pad to store supplies and take shelter from the enemy as well as the elements.
The narrow wood cladded room is strangely packed with several white wooden chairs, suggesting the soldiers or modern adventurers simply take the opportunity to put their feet up.
Which makes sense, as some of the trails on the Dolomites can take around a week to walk.
