A former missile silo built 182 feet underground at the height of the Cold War has blasted onto the market in Carlton, KS, for $1,600,500.Located on 18.2 acres of privacy surrounded by barbed-wire fencing for additional security, the North Star Missile Silo features an underground tunnel, steel blast doors, and a two-story command center. The original 182-foot-deep missile silo is surrounded by 6-foot-thick concrete walls.Designed to shield a missile and its crew from a nuclear attack or natural disaster, the "ultimate fallout shelter," also known as Atlas F Site 550-4, has an above-ground entrance door that leads down to the hidden structure.“The sellers purchased the company that owned the property, so this unique property came with it,” says listing agent Ali Schneider of Real Broker, LLC. “They used it as a rental, and there has also been talk about making it into an off-grid conference venue or wedding venue. There has even been some discussion about turning the silo into condos.”Loading...The former missile silo was built 182 feet underground at the height of the Cold War.Matt Gilliland of Prevailing Real Estate MediaLoading...The North Star Missile Silo features an undergrou...
