I shall move in here. Every day the schoolbus will back up the driveway, open its back doors, and dump my kids into the big funnel that leads to their rooms.
Wheeee!

Loveliest comment, by JMixx: “The original, heavy security doors are built to withstand a 2000 lb blast and are at the underground home entrance.”
That’s IT! I am DONE with poking my potatoes with a fork before I microwave them.

Copy & paste this:
Whoa, it looks like a house from “Blast From the Past” movie
That was exactly what I thought! Only one terrifying thought: Upon entering and closing the doors, the “locks” would engage and you would be stuck down there for 35 years!
Want.
Me Want, TOO !!! This reminds me of the houses i imagined owning as a kid. MAN, i want this house !!! =D
Me too.
I even drew up plans for something like this…and, for good measure, there was a swiss family robinson-esque tree on the top of it.
This is a winner and no mistake. It’s definitely worth a look at the original listing. But if I had 2.3 million to spend on a house, there’d be more to it than 3 bedrooms 2 baths, no matter how exotic the location.
A cult ought to buy this place and convert the big silo into living quarters (and armory, of course).
Does that escape hatch have a guy named Desmond at the bottom? If so, here’s my credit card.
Exactly my thoughts! Very very LOSTish!
My very first thought too!
yeah but do you have to push buttons every 108 minutes?
*snerk*
The photo “Surface part of Silo complex as it exists today” makes me feel like I’m watching a Thomas the Tank Engine show
I want this so bad it hurts. I’ve always wanted my very own bunker! XD
Most excellent! These missile-silo homes are actually pretty cool, altho for that much money I’d pick a nicer place.
I hope the laundry isn’t at the bottom of all those stairs…
You could have a hell of a laundry chute, though.
Damn thats too cool. I would so love to live there.
Are there nine levels here? Because if there is, I’m pretty sure this is Dante’s house.
Level nine would most definitely contain the washer and the dryer.
Sara, I’m wise to you.
I see the money the Umbrella Corp. is depositing into your offshore bank accounts. All you need now is the slinky red dress and we’re good to go!
It’s a palace coup!
I was so thinking that too. Which would be somewhat of a downside to moving in. I prefer my house without hordes of undead and giant toad thingies.
I NEED this place. Something about having my own landing strip seems like the PERFECT idea. I can just park my plane in the garage, Press a button, and have it fall about 6 floors into the ground.

You will survive the nuclear war for sure in this house.
I believe that Power Dome A is the roost of a truly ancient Deep Crow.
Awesome. And if that runway can (or can be upgraded to) handle 727s, you can buy the additional 85 acres and start your own plane-home park. WIN!
Just $2.3 million and several of us are interested. I know, guys: Let’s go in together and buy it. If we combine resources we’ll have enough to improve the above ground living quarters to our standards, and …. oh, really, just help me buy it! I want this like I need air!
Time share!
With 4000 sq feet of living space, the option for a lot more, and a freestanding hangar, this would make one hell of a frat or sorority house.
What is wrong with you people? You’re thinking of Lost, Swiss Family Robinson and Dante’s Inferno?!
THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO!
Cool I heard about this befor its a converted missle silo ther is quite alot of square feet isnt there.
Wow. Think of the possibilities. Think of all vacuuming…
Well, you’d never have to worry about washing the windows again, so there’s that.
You’d also likely have to combat mushrooms sprouting from odd places on your body, so there’s that too. Rickets Manor.
[redacted -- LL] ! Someone else is taking my dream of living in a silo. I better get the money together quick or I wouldn’t have any to choose from
Those of you who love it obviously aren’t claustrophobic. Shudder.
ditto ^
Here here. Ack – it’s the first thing I thought of.
Looks like the Bunkers moved to upstate NY.
I think I still hung up on yesterday’s socket house – my first thought was that this would be an awesome place to own if you were a druglord. 20,000 square foot silo for a grow-op, meth-lab or whatever else floats your boat and a runway to aid in the distribution. Plus you could probably withstand the DEA pretty well what with blast doors.
*sigh* It is the super-villain’s Catch-22. You need 2.3 million to buy the missile silo, but you need the missile silo to hold the world hostage for 2.3 million…
LOL exactly!
I think the personal air strip alone would win over my hubby. And since I have toured one of those missile silos, I do know what it feels like in there. And those renovations look NICE!.
Those renovations look PHOTOSHOPPED to me, but who can tell. Could just be really bad photos
Ah-Ha! This explains the motives of all those James Bond villains. How long has it been on the market?
It truly is lovely. The only problem is, if the Russians haven’t updated their targets in a while, you will be a target!
Awesome – you get your own runway as well as a cabin home. But the best thing is, you have a super-large nuclear bomb proof basement to store all your stuff.
Total win.
This place would be perfect come the zombie apocalypse!
Yeah, but I think this is where the zombie apocalypse starts from. Lets hope they can’t work out the lock on the blast doors and stay stuck in there.
want.
want, want, WANT!!!
I saw an episod of Popular Mechanics for Kids about that house when I was little! It was really cool.
I soooooo want this for the eventual (?) zombie invasion !!!
OK wow. If I had that all of the underground stuff would be my man cave.
This is exactly the house I want if there’s ever a zombie apocalypse.
This was on Popular Mechanics 4 kids a long time ago
Ooh ooh ooh I bags the underground room!
War….war never changes…
I think I saw this on HGTV a few years ago on Extreme Houses, it used to be a missile base, but the last missile inside was sold at an auction, I can’t believe I remember this, and it was when I was like 10-12 or something
WAR
