IMPORTANT ADVISORY: We have the comfort of knowing that the Sedbergh Bunker in Cumbria has been maintained in a VERY GOOD condition. However, of the approximate 1,500 of these structures in the UK, several are structurally unsafe, others may have toxic gas or mould spores built up (underground) over many years. PLEASE do NOT “urban explore” UKWMO bunkers without first checking the safety and credentials with the owner first. Thank you.

If you would like to bid and/or view/buy the Nuclear/ROC/UKWMO Bunker featured on this page, please contact the excellent auctioneer: Eddisons/SDL Auctions (all contact details at the foot of this article).

On the important subject of seller’s estate agents and auction houses and how this can favourably or adversely affect buyers, here is an important note for you. our reader. On the 28th February 2020 we purchased the new offices for this Unique Property Bulletin publication (via our sister company and the building it owns: click here). We had such a horrendous time due to one of the Scottish auction houses costing us £15,000 that we now study and advise on every Trustpilot review for our readers.

This is important: we do not want our readers and friends put in the same harm’s way. We actually begged Future Property Auctions to address the serious concerns that their customers had three years ago: click here. Frustratingly, Future Property Auctions seem to have gotten WORSE. Today’s Trustpilot high-volume-bad-service is an incredibly poor 63% – click here. Even other review-sites give Future Property Auctions a dire feedback. Three years ago: here and now: here.

So we are not going to place our own readers in the hands of a problematic estate agency/auctioneer by casually including poorly rated companies such as Future Property Auctions.

Especially, given the fact that between 10,000 (click here) and 186,000 of our readers (here) visit Unique Property Bulletin regularly. We want you to feel safe when you look at buying buildings we share for you here at the Bulletin. Ironically, had the poorly trusted auctioneer in Scotland not lost us £15,000, we might have deployed that £15,000 of ours in a bid for Sedbergh bunker. C’est la vie, c’est la guerre.

On the important topic of seller-credentials: the owner of Sedbergh Bunker in Cumbria as featured in this article, has been a reader of ours for several years and we have found him to be a very decent and fair minded gentleman. This is based on many hours of discussions over several years (and help from the seller to keeping Unique Property Bulletin alive and kicking). So we have no reservations on that matter either.

With respect to this actual underground bunker. We have actually been to Dent Station a few years ago. The location is particularly pleasant.

The bunker is one of the more interesting ones that we have featured over the past three decades. This bunker has land to park a vehicle. Plus the above-ground and the below-ground elements are in well kept order, given the age and semi subterranean nature of the building.

Rare Bonus

BT Openreach Telephone Landline Connected

Broadband Should Be Available

The owner has wisely paid for the BT Openreach telephone landline to remain connected for many years.

This appeals to us as it is entirely possible to work, via the internet, from this bunker.

Furthermore, as has been seen in other (very expensive European and American bunkers) some owners have installed flat screen televisions linked to CCTV outside. Then these bunker owners have framed those televisions to look like windows to a bright, sunlit pleasant world outside.

Virtual Window Underground

^^ Creating A “Virtual View” Via A Wall Mounted ^^

Flat Screen Television “Window” Underground

Excerpt From HOU~ZZ. Source: Click Here

Here at Unique Property Bulletin, we have been helping our readers’ find these types of ROC UKWMO underground bunkers for three decades. But this is the first we have found that still has its telephone landline maintained and “live.” This make it possible to stay in this bunker in a way hitherto only dreamt about.

The functioning landline also enables the internet capability of having one of the “virtual windows” that relay real-time video from wherever you like and to a Trompe-l’œil effect (here) via the “virtual window.”

A wee confession: one of our job-creation projects (the daytime job not the volunteering on this Bulletin) is bringing old closed-shops, shut-hotels and derelict-factories back to life; renovating each building, then re-opening each one and creating the renewed jobs in a way where they are viable. We are as passionate about that Accidental Success of bringing closed/tired High Streets back to life (click here) as we are about this Unique Property Bulletin lasting 40 years and still going strong, with a little help from friends who publish these (here and here).

Each time we renovate one of the larger (closed-down) buildings we invariably have a site-office from which to manage the project. To complete the rebuild + Planning Permissions + Building Warrants and deliveries of building materials plus liaison with various contractors etc.

As this bunker could be made to look like our site office at Sannox Hotel (for example), that, in our eyes at least, would transform a previously pessimistic view of staying in one of these bunkers for any duration, where the time spent underground can be uncomfortable and transform this to the positively attractive mole-home – with a (virtual) view!

In fact if it wasn’t professionally questionable (as our role here is to share these details with readers’ and friends), we would be sorely tempted to bid on this bunker in Cumbria ourselves. Why? Because we could BRING OUR OWN VIEWS! On reflection, there are magnificent views already all around this bunker. All you need is a CCTV system on a pole that emerges form one of the various bunker shafts skywards, piercing the earth above this post-WW2 structure.

^^ VIRTUAL VIEW ^^

We are using our own photos to give readers and idea of what you could have affixed on the wall off this bunker (via a flat-screen television pretend “window”).

Please Note: The view immediately above these words is NOT the actual view from Sedbergh bunker. We are just illustrating how it would be possible to transform the bunker to a very cosy place to stay with the ILLUSION of a window to the outside (whilst all the time being 18 feet underground).

To complete the cosy effect, here is our actual office. We can already imagine replicating this nice warm place into what, over the past 3 years have been cold and opressive underground spaces.

Well done to the current owner for paying all of those telephone bills to this underground structure. A very good idea indeed….

The thought of living underground for any duration WITH some creature comforts such as these, totally transforms our view of underground life from negative to positive!

All due to the foresight of the current owner paying to keep their landline telephone connection alive for many years.
