UNDERGROUND HOME + 70 ACRES OF SECLUSION — A PREPPER’S DREAM!
Looking for privacy, self-sufficiency, and something truly different? This 70-acre property southwest of Tahlequah features an underground home with a unique bunker-style feel, tucked away behind a gated entrance and surrounded by rolling countryside. Whether you’re a prepper, hunter, homesteader, or simply someone who values privacy, this property offers an uncommon opportunity to create your own private retreat.
The 1,904 sq. ft. (CH) underground home is exceptionally energy efficient, offering 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and sitting among some of the property’s best views. The earth-sheltered construction provides natural insulation and a distinctive, protected living environment, making this home unlike anything else you're likely to find. The property is currently being used as a successful rental, offering income potential while you make plans for its future.
The land is equally impressive, with approximately 20–30 acres of pasture, three ponds, cross fencing, a large barn with tack room, and abundant wildlife including deer, turkey, and quail. An extensive ATV trail system winds throughout the property, providing access to hunting areas, recreational spots, and secluded corners of the acreage.
For those interested in homesteading or self-sufficient living, there is plenty of room for livestock, gardens, recreation, equipment, and additional improvements. A 30' x 40' shop provides valuable storage and workspace with some TLC.
Whether you envision a private bunker-style retreat, hunting property, homestead, recreational getaway, or secure place away from the crowds, this 70 acres offers the space, privacy, water, wildlife, energy efficiency, and possibilities to make it your own. Properties combining 70 acres with a unique, energy-efficient underground home are exceptionally hard to find.
