8 Luxurious Off-Grid Homes That Are Off the Charts Amazing

There’s something rather alluring about living off the grid. The idea of quiet and open space can be especially dreamy for anyone dealing with a noisy neighbor or tired of big-city life.

But going off-grid doesn’t mean leaving luxury behind. These days, unplugging from public utilities doesn’t necessarily mean a rustic existence. Here are eight great homes that are luxurious and beautiful, from a log cabin overlooking rolling hills in Oregon to a tropical retreat tucked into the Hawaiian forest.

13136 Elizabeth Lake Rd, Leona Valley, CA

Price: $3,000,000

Lots of land by L.A.: Looking to escape the hustle and bustle of life in Los Angeles, but don’t want to stray too far? This six-bedroom, six-bathroom mansion could be ideal.

The 4,600-square-foot home is powered entirely by solar panels and draws water from its own well. It’s located in the tiny city of Leona Valley (population 1,569 in 2022), which is merely an hour from Los Angeles.

What makes this sustainable space luxe? It comes with 40 acres, which include a guesthouse, space for horses or livestock, a 2,600-square-foot barn, a pool, and a koi pond.

71919 Eden Ln, Enterprise, OR

Price: $2,400,000

For the outdoor enthusiast: This home was built with wood sourced from the property. It comes with an amazing 620 acres of timber and 170 acres of meadows.

The interior features wood and stone details, and the home is powered by solar panels and a battery storage system. A propane generator offers a backup power source.

65XXX N Juans Canyon Rd, Cave Creek, AZ

Price: $1,050,000

Endless views: This listing is so private, the address isn’t even public.

This home was built in 2008 and comes with 10 acres of hilly landscape. It includes a backup generator, propane, and a 10,000-gallon water tank.

The home itself has only three bedrooms, but there’s an epic wrap-around porch with “endless views looking at the Tonto National Forest.”

214 Harmony Way, Montrose, CO

Price: $1,599,500

Italian country style: This home is “located at the end of a long private drive” and behind a locked gate. So, while it seems like it would be hard to get the plumber out here, it’s a small price to pay for the peace and seclusion that comes with 40 acres and a “truly self-sufficient” power system.

Plus, the interior feels like a vacation spot. The rustic wood, tile floors, and textured walls make this place seem like it’s located in the Italian countryside.

37968 E County Road 1590, Coalgate, OK

Price: $2,750,000

The ultimate man cave: Taxidermy is on display in this 3,000-square-foot barndominium. It comes with just over 315 acres.

While buyers might have a hard time imagining this as a family home (it’s been on the market for about four months), it seems ideal as a bachelor party pad.

655 Moonshine Rdg, Cullowhee, NC

Price: $1,995,000

Cozy cottage: This cottage doesn’t look like much from the exterior. It’s just one bedroom, and the wood shingles look older than its 1997 construction. But inside, it’s like a fairy-tale space, with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, two sets of bunk beds, a cozy kitchen, and built-in library storage.

The cottage, which sits on a 74.2-acre lot, comes furnished. The listing also advises the next owners to “build your dream home upon the unspoiled land and utilize the lodge as guest quarters.”

157 Craig Pond Trl, Orland, ME

Price: $2,400,000

Summer forever: This waterfront property was once a sleepaway camp for boys, but now, it can be the ultimate getaway for a family.

The 64-acre property includes two cottages; a historic lodge, dining hall, and kitchen; a former infirmary; a workshop; and lean-tos with sleeping areas.

There’s also a seasonal dock and 3,000 feet of pond access.
