The Missile Base consists of 57 acres of real estate. The center secured portion of the property is protected by the original barbed-wire-topped chainlink fence. There is a paved road leading into the property with dual entry gates.

Below ground is a huge complex consisting of 16 buildings and thousands of feet of connecting tunnels. The major underground structures are:

Three - 160' Tall Missile Silos

Two - 6 story Antenna Silos

Tank you!

Check out the dimensions of some of those rooms! Amazing ceiling heights. Price seems reasonable, but I expect a full reno/resto will cost much more than the purchase price. The land alone looks great.

Best,

Kurt

nice for a paramilitary group commune buy..lol

[slodave]

Pelican group buy? Imagine the track one could build. How about under ground parking .

[Gogar]

You pay $1,500,000 but I can't show you pictures of the inside. Okay.

I bet there's a 1957 Plymouth Belvedere in there somewhere!!!!! And we all know how that usually turns out!

It's in the barn! Seriously though, I can't believe he won't even offer tours to prospective buyers. $1.5M is a lot for sight unseen.

On the positive side you can be pretty sure this is nuke safe.
On the negative side it would be targeted for a direct strike.

"SERIOUS INTERESTED PARTIES ONLY!!
NO TOURS!! Must submit offer with $10,000 earnest money deposit into escrow subject to inspection."

I took that as meaning that you get to inspect if you submit an offer with a 10k deposit, pending isnpection.

Makes sense, I suppose. Otherwise he'd be innundated with people who just want to see the place.

It'd be a pretty cool Bat Cave

I didn't see a location and the eBay link is not working atm. My guess is central/western North Dakota.

[onewhippedpuppy]

Central WA.

[frogger]

I'd be all over that deal if only it was located in North Dakota.

Come to Colorado, they come up for sale here all of the time on the eastern planes, some a short 20min's from Denver.

Pretty much.

[cashflyer]

Two for sale in Kansas right now, and another in NM. Although these are a bit smaller, since they are Atlas sites instead of Titan sites.

Hmm, Roswell, NM. Sounds interesting.

[onewhippedpuppy]

The ones in KS are cheap! I'm all over it.......
