A luxury three-bedroom 3D-printed home project in Tampa has been listed at nearly $600,000 — see what it'll be like to live in

• Alquist will partner with CPH-3D, the 3D printing construction startup to build a printed house in Tampa, Florida.
• The 1,521-square-foot project is currently listed at $599 300
• Additional printed furniture can be added to the luxury three-bedroom, two bathroom home. 

Alquist, a 3D printing construction tech company, has partnered with Tampa, Florida startup CPH-3D (Click, Print, Home) to build the city's first luxury 3D printed concrete home.

But this isn't just a test run to prove the tech: The 1,521-square-foot pre-construction project has already been listed on Compass at $599,300.

And so far, the future home has seen "tremendous" interest, Matt Gibson, the listing agent and the founder of CPH-3D told Insider in an email.

Alquist is a rising star in the rapidly growing construction tech industry.

The startup has built several units in Virginia, including a $235,000, three-bedroom, two bathroom home.

It now plans to build 200 more concrete homes in the state over the next five-years.

To build this Tampa home, CPH-3D will use Alquist's COBOD BOD2 3D printer …

By using this printer — which precisely excretes the concrete walls of the home — CPH-3D says it can cut the construction project's waste by up to 95% …

… while saving time, money, and labor compared to traditional construction methods, according to proponents of the tech.

With all these benefits, it's no surprise Zack Mannheimer, Alquist's CEO, believes more homes will be printed than built traditionally by 2027, he told Insider earlier this year.

"The Florida market has proven itself resilient and there's a need for cost effective technology — along with natural disaster resistant construction — like never before," Mannheimer said in a press release.

This home will be similar to other 3D-printed homes and have curved walls.

And it's not just for aesthetic purposes: The concrete curves and the lack of wood will help make the home hurricane wind, fire, and flood resistant, according to its listing on Compass.

Inside, the three-bedroom home will have two decks, an open-concept kitchen, living, and dining room …

… as well as a laundry room, walk-in closets, and two bathrooms.

One bathroom will also be in a uniquely curved room to serve as a "safe room" amid severe weather conditions, which Tampa, Florida is no stranger to.

Home design features like 10 foot ceilings, quartz countertops and a walk in pantry and closets will add luxury to the home.

And because it hasn't been built yet, there are still plenty of opportunities for its future owners to customize the build.

The home's renderings depict walls with a layered concrete, a byproduct of the printing process. These walls can be finished by the future owner.

According to the listing, additional features such as a garage or furniture can also be printed.

Gibson claims that the home has attracted several buyers who are interested in the construction project. Gibson says it could end up costing less than $599,000.

And those who aren't interested in this exact home and lot have already asked CPH-3D about other build opportunities on their own lots.

"More and more requests come through every day," Gibson said, adding that it's proving local demand for printed homes.

"Buyers are embracing this new approach to home building and loving the design freedom, strength and efficiency," he said.
