You Live in What?

From a 200-year-old Dutch barn from upstate New York that's now a country home in Mississippi to a crumbling Lake Ontario lighthouse restored to its former glory, You Live in What tours amazing living spaces and introduces the people whose creativity and vision made it all possible. A Chicago firehouse conversion is almost too authentic, and a historic livery in Birmingham, Alabama, is now a hip live-work space for a photographer and her family. There's also a charming schoolhouse in beachy Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi, a New Orleans shipping container home that shows lot size doesn't matter if you're creative and a Wisconsin church whose residential conversion seems divinely inspired. These one-of-a-kind homes and their visionary homeowners prove that with a little imagination, you can live in almost anything.

Visionary homeowners prove that with a little imagination, you can live in almost anything. Go inside a once-dilapidated Sacramento fire station that's been resurrected into a beautiful home, a 150-year old castle overlooking Lowell, Mass., with dozens of rooms for an ever-growing family, a Jewish Temple in Alabama that's now an artistic couple's residence and art studio, an off-beat Chicago museum transformed into a boutique bed and breakfast, and many more.

Inventive owners convert historic buildings into one-of-a-kind homes. Explore a Kentucky bourbon distillery whose crumbling stone walls are now the centerpiece of an amazing country home, a Pennsylvania residence created from a one-room Civil War schoolhouse, an old coal company commissary turned eclectic abode, three orange shipping containers converted into a country cottage north of Manhattan, and a historic Knoxville grist mill that's now a live-work space with a working water wheel.

People across the country take unlikely structures and create incredible homes. Explore an urban oasis crafted from an industrial ink factory, a funky fire station home in Northern California, a church from the 1930s that's been cleverly expanded into a multi-room family home, a Houston artist's abode built from a commercial glass warehouse and a 200-year-old stone meeting hall in New York.

From a New York Dutch barn transformed into a rustic Texas dwelling to a candy factory repurposed into an art gallery/penthouse, take a personal tour of some of the most unique home conversions in the world. See an Alice's Restaurant inspired church conversion in Massachusetts, a 1700s corner store turned private residence in New Hampshire and a Catskills shipping container home with some unique alterations.

Creative people turn historic structures into unusual homes. Check out a 200-year old hay barn turned home in the Connecticut woods, a Hudson Valley church transformed into an artists' sanctuary, a uniquely Texas lighthouse inspired by the New England coast, a grist mill in upstate New York that was a key stop in the Underground Railroad and a multi-barn homestead in Waco, Texas.
