Crumbling 1979 Michigan dome bought for $87,000 now lists for $499,900

An eye-catching 1970s concrete dome home in Michigan that was once left to decay, with collapsed ceilings and damaged walls, has returned to the property market after a major renovation. Located in Brighton, Michigan, the 2,457-square-foot home is now listed for $499,900. The sharp rise in value comes just three years after the current owners bought the badly damaged shell for $87,000 in 2023. Reporting by Realtor.com shows how the four-bedroom monolithic dome has been completely transformed while keeping its unusual shape and adding modern fixtures, eco-friendly materials and open living spaces.From structural decay to a modern sanctuaryBefore-and-after footage shared by local estate agent Meghan Zoll of Zoll Homes showed how badly the property had deteriorated before the renovation. The original white exterior had become dark brown because of years of weather damage and neglect.
