Surely one of the most unique real estate properties you could own, the missile silo home sits on 105 acres of manicured grounds, forest and trails. Above ground, it features a hangar and spacious open living room and fireplace with wrap around porch. Below ground, and accessible via stairs from above ground home in what was once the launch control center, now is a two level, 3 bedroom 2-1/2 bath with open living area and kitchen adjoined by a spiral staircase. Huge doors open to a large tunnel that accesses the silo with an additional 20,000 square feet of useable space with unlimited possibilities. The perfect getaway home, it has its own direct runway access, its climate controlled and is capable of withstanding a nuclear hit.

ASKING $2.3 MILLION - SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY!!!

For 2.3 million and getting 105 acres that sounds pretty good actually.

That place has been on the market for years now. It looks kind of cool, but the silo part itself would probably be a huge pain. The metal stairways would probably become dangerous and unreliable without a lot of attention, and a lot of those silos take on water once abandoned. You could end up with one very nasty hole in the ground and virtually no resale value (given the length of time they usually stay on the market!). If I had the couple of million to spend on it, I could build a decent bunker that doesn't have a silo attached.

Then again, it would be so cool to live in an old missile silo (heck, a little welding and pumping should keep things in order)... Also, isn't there a school somewhere that's located in an old Atlas silo?

Great points maddie...... I was only thinking that it was a gubbermint hideout ... that is the last place you want to be if TSHTF.

But matinence is curcial........ keeping a hole in the ground dry is a massive task.


I also dont like all you see is concept drawings........ makes me kinda nervous.
