The idea of having a bomb shelter always intrigued me.

My house is raised 3 feet from the ground. Two years after buying it I was under the house in this crawl space doing some electrical work. I noticed in the center of the house a series of cinder blocks arranged in a rectangle.

When I crawled over to it I noticed a cement lined pit 6 feet deep, 4 feet wide x 5 feet long. It was the “room” for the old 1920s gravity fed heater system. The area over it had tiles installed making it inaccessible.

When I remodeled the house I regained access to my newly discovered cellar. Unfortunately gaining access to it is a lot like getting into Grandpa Munster’s lab, via a trap door.

It is being used for storage now, but would love to somehow convert it into a man cave.

Congrats on your bomb shelter, it not only a conversation piece but hopefully a functional part of your house.
