Wanna Live In The World’s Most Luxurious Cave? (27 pics)
Though actively used for exploration since the early 1800s, this cave in Arkansas was left unchanged until 1983
1
Celestial Tea co-founder John Hay then purchased it along with a 240-acre spread for $146,000
2
He believed this cave could be an amazing hideout if things during the Cold War would heat up
3
He then spent four years and $2 million converting the cave into a fallout shelter
4
People’s article from 1988 stated, “First, 20 laborers removed 250 million years worth of silt from the subterranean chamber”
5
“The cave’s mouth was then covered with three-foot-thick concrete walls and faced with quarried stone”
6
“Openings were left for windows for the oak-paneled kitchen and living room and for an arched, walnut-framed entrance way”
7
“In the event of the Holocaust, all these openings can be sealed with concrete blocks”
8
“Inside, Hay followed the cave’s natural, high-roofed contours “The architect was God,” he said”. It even has a natural waterfall inside
9
After the Cold War ended, he realized a bomb shelter was no longer needed and sold it
10
Now the current owner of “World’s most luxurious cave” put it up for sale again
11
This time it can be yours for $2.75 million
12
Last updated in 2014, this 5,800-square-foot cave home has four bedrooms and four bathrooms
13
It has got all the modern amenities of a regular home, including a 75-inch LED TV in the living room
14
Comfy couches and thermal heating will keep you warm and cozy in the living area
15
The kitchen is state-of-the-art, and there is a large custom-built wooden bar for guests to come and gather around
16
All the rooms are rich in natural rock formations as most of the cave was preserved during all phases of building and remodeling
17
The spacious master includes a unique round queen-sized bed and a spa-like private bathroom, all surrounded by the natural formations of the cave

Surrounding rock walls and overhead rain showers offer a waterfall-like experience
