Most famous homes are known for their unique design or impressive interior — but this property in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, is world-renowned for its backyard.

According to its website, the "Uncommon Garden" hosts a number of events throughout the year, and donates the proceeds to local non-profit organizations.

The artwork found across the acre or so of land consists of metal and rock — the huge stone dragon and sprawling metal tree, for example — as well as soothing water features and creative landscape design.

From the classic red bridge to the lush greenery and striking sculptures, the space is heavily inspired by the tranquil Zen gardens of Japan.

Finally, there's a pagoda-style bandstand that's perfect for hosting speakers, music events and pretty much any other get-together you can think of.

So, if you've got $1.7 million to spend and want to own one of the most remarkable backyards in the US, check out the listing here.
