This was the most commonly looked up Morning Break Item, so I broke it out to
its own page... this house went on the market after the owner passed away, and
it was so incredible that it was in the local news. I looked it up on John L
Scott, and went to the website that was on the news story... its pretty amazing! The house is in Blaine, wa...
The House  Pressed cobblestone driveway and doorstoop. Sidewalks are aggregate. The house is a well-maintained tri-level home with a pleasant decor. The upper level has 3 bedrooms plus a full bathroom. The kitchen, 2 dining areas, living room and fireplace are in the middle level. The family room and 2 car garage with 1/2 bathroom are in one lower level. A bathroom with shower and a large pantry in the other lower level (this level can be locked off as part of the Subterranean Fortress or as part of the house so that pantry and bathroom are just as accessible during peacetime as well as disaster).
The Neighborhood The house appears to fit right in with the other well kept homes and responsible neighbors. It is within walking distance of a good school and 1st class park.
Highlights of the Area
Fantastic Hiking Trails
The Subterranean Fortress, aka "The Project" Endless hours of hard work and careful planning over a period of 14 years went This 1000 pound Cement Door Swings on Hinges (Yes, hinges.)
Once inside the pantry, this sliding shelf hides a secret entrance to the Subterranean Fortress.
Several independent ventilation systems keep the air fresh. Excellent lighting creates an unexpectedly cheerful atmosphere in this below ground world. Hollow Wall With Stairs Down to Level Two
This hallway is 2 stories down and connects 4 areas.
All walls, ceilings and floors include 14" to 40" of heavily steel reinforced concrete. In every case more steel than necessary has been used to make this Subterranean Fortress as secure as possible. It is engineered to handle a nuclear explosion as close as 2.5 miles, yet is strategically located where there are no probable targets in the area. The large pantry is protected with a minimum of 12" of steel reinforced concrete on all sides including the door. All cement surfaces are finished off with several layers of epoxy paint, which is radiation resistant, washes easily and lasts practically forever. The completely camouflaged below ground Base Room is 40' Long, 9' High, 12' Wide
The Big Door (3 tons)
Secret passageways and compartments may be used to hide
valuables, papers, food, etc. Some may be used as alternate access to other
rooms or to the outside.
Two camouflaged utility entrances (one large one small). Only the small one is visible.
Included is a fully automatic and sealed sewer pump to get waste product to the city sewer.
The Subterranean Fortress literally goes down 4 stories deep. Because of the depth and the thickness of the cement the computer room is Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP) wave proof.
You are looking down through the elevator shaft (That square hole I mentioned above.) from the floor of the first subterranean level through all four stories (almost 40 feet) of the Subterranean Fortress. My mom is looking up from the third level.
The black circle she is standing on is a blast ceiling for the fourth and final subterranean level.
