Zac Efron is looking to live the high life.
The Down to Earth star recently broke ground on what he’s dubbed “FutureCave,” a sustainable home primarily made of cannabis plants, in Australia with designer Joost Bakker.
“Excited to get started on Zac’s house!” Bakker wrote in a May 8 Instagram post that featured a group photo of himself, Efron and others on the crew. “Especially want to thank these two legends @main__frank for working so hard to get this project designed and approved!”
The High School Musical alum’s dream home will sit on a 128-hectare (about 316-acre) lot of land near the New South Wales and Queensland border that he purchased in 2020, per the Australian Financial Review. Much of its building material will be made from hemp sourced from a local farm.
But that’s not all. The mattresses, curtains and pillows Efron plans to have inside the residence will also be derived from the plant, according to Bakker, who told the outlet that he’s also working with an appliance maker to potentially create a hemp drum-made washing machine.
In addition to six bedrooms, the home will also have a rooftop garden with a large living area.
