Christine Lapinski Is Currently Selling Her Home With Appliances, Large Yard And Bomb Shelter, Ideally Used As “Party Room” | September 9

Pinellas Park: For sale: Bungalow built in the 1960’s, comes complete with large yard, appliances and bomb shelter. Florida woman Christine Lapinski is in the midst of selling the home that belonged to her late father.

The house, in Pinellas Park was built in the 1960s, during the height of the Cold War. In the driveway is a hatch that leads to an underground bomb shelter: a rare sight in Florida.

Imagine the possibilities today.

Realtor Sue Ellis recommended the use as “a tornado shelter, hurricane shelter since we got done with the hurricane, party room, man cave or wine cellar.”

The woman whose father owned the home said that the bomb shelter was one of the key reasons he decided to purchase the home. Christine Lapinski’s father served in the Navy, so he felt right at home safe and sound down there.

Now, that hideaway — and the house above it — are on the market and available to anyone who needs a little extra space.
