The multimillion-dollar price tag on this windowless shack outside Kansas City, Missouri is inexplicable — until you see what lies underground.
In the 500-person town of Polo, a peculiar property has grabbed the web’s attention with its unassuming above-ground appearance and the extensive doomsday shelter below.
“This is essentially the most unique property in Missouri,” Colleen Roberts of ReeceNichols Country Club Plaza’s Allison Rank Team told The Post of the offering, which is currently looking for $2 million. More unusual than the listing itself is the very fact it’s even up for grabs on eBay for a similar sum. “No one would ever suspect 10,000 square feet of underground space on this 10-acre plot of land.”
The property, Roberts added, has “so many various opportunities” for each industrial and residential uses.
Inside the shack — which sits quite ominously alone in a field next to a yellow shipping container — is an industrial-appearing lobby with a set of stairs leading multiple flights down into the earth.
Once contained in the bunker, a sprawling, apocalypse-proof home awaits.
There are two bathrooms, a kitchen, a soundproof music studio with recording facilities, a pool room, a glass-blowing studio, a recreation area with 16-foot-high ceilings, a gym and room for multiple bedrooms. If the top of days comes, the owner will definitely have plenty to maintain busy.
According to the listing, the space was constructed for an exorbitant cost within the Nineteen Sixties (the listing estimates the quantity would equate to greater than $34 million today). It also boasts quite a lot of safety features, including 2.5-foot-thick concrete partitions, electromagnetic pulse-resistant copper shielding, two 3,000-pound blast doors, an emergency escape hatch and a 177-foot communication tower.
“In an era where even technology titans are grabbing headlines for his or her investments in personal safety, akin to his end-of-the-world bunker, this property emerges as a real testament to visionary planning,” says the listing.
This for-sale offering was also featured on the Instagram account Zillow Gone Wild.
“If the Breaking Bad lab was a pleasant house,” joked one commenter.
“You could close on this before the 2024 election,” wrote one other.
