Perched six meters above the forest floor and anchored to living pine trees on a steep Norwegian hillside, the Woodnest Treehouse cabins in Odda, Norway are some of the most extraordinary tiny structures ever built. Designed by architecture studio Helen & Hard, each cabin covers just 15 square meters (roughly 160 square feet) yet contains sleeping space for up to four, a kitchenette, a private bathroom, and panoramic glass walls that frame the Hardangerfjord, snow-capped mountains, and endless Norwegian forest. You reach them by hiking 20 to 60 minutes through the woods. There is no car access. No road noise. Just pine trees, fjord water, and silence.

One starts at 890,000 Krones, and the other at 930,000 (approximately $96,000 USD, and $100,402 USD, respectively).
