The Missile Silo Home!
The Missile Silo Home!
A great property for those who crave an outrageous conversation piece and expect a livable home to boot! One thing is for sure, you'll never have to worry about having a bomb shelter big enough to fit in family and friends! We love how they listed this as the most unique and secure real estate in the world! Indisputable!
Starting with access, these silos were usually located in scrubby unpopulated areas, however, this one is located in the pine forest of Upstate New York's Adirondack State Park with forest, clearings and extravagant mountain views. In Adirondack Airpark Estates, the existing DOT approved, and FAA inspected private airport, the 2,050' X 20' paved runway is approved for daytime single engine VFR use and is presently undergoing expansion to accommodate private jets. Many well maintained state roads are also convenient to the property. The area offers endless outdoor activities year-round including golf, world-class skiing, fishing, boating, kayaking, backpacking, camping, hunting, horseback riding and more.
One of the first things we see is the charming 3 BR, 2BA log cabin that would be perfect to live in while the rest is sorted. Of course the renovated silo below ground is truly elegant in its design with upscale materials. You may even choose your own appliances. It has been suggested that the deeper silo would make the perfect secure computer installation where an apartment could be set up for a live-in full-time technician. Naturally it could have numerous other purposes as well.
The sale of this estate has been broken down into 5 tracts, giving the option of buying a single tract up to the entire estate. The log cabin is currently a rental vacation property that is booked up to 30 times a year. The remaining tracts have already been platted for a fly-in development where one can park their airplane at their home. Or, . . it could all be left undeveloped just as it is for the ultimate secure business or family retreat.
Where else could one find a property with so many unusual options for use? Entire estate priced at $2.9m.
