I wouldn't mind one of those without all the fancy "secure home" features. The design looks really nice... Satyagraha

And a steal for just under $500k. A house up the street from me, four bedroom two story with a garage and finished basement, just sold for more than that.
And it's not nearly as cool looking, nor is it at all disasterproof. (Not like we need anything but fire and hurricane proofing in New Jersey, but still).
I'd buy it if I had the money. Posts: 3960 | Registered: Jul 2001

Well, yes. I think playing up the hobbit hole angle would have been more fun, too, personally.

This guy probably knows what a Hobbit is. He probably has a couple of them hanging over the fireplace.

I don't think the terrorism aspects heavy-handed, since this was obviously why the house was designed the way it was: By paranoids for paranoids.
If it was just an underground house without the cool security toys and they hyped the terrorism angle, that would opportunistic.
Hyping the anti-Nazgul features is fair game, though.

Is it me or is it kind of weird that this totally disaster proofed cave/house had sheetmetal roll-up doors. Was there some sort of reinforcement mentioned that I missed. I read almost the whole site (skimmed really) but didn't see any reference to those doors in the pictures.
Yeah I get there's a safe room in the event of an actual emergency, but if you're not already in it when the stuff hit's the fan, it's too little too late, in my opinion.
