A sleek £800,000 apartment from the 1930s, fitted out in a kitschy Art Deco style in the capital’s Laboratory Building on Rosebery Avenue, also comes with another unique feature: an underground bunker.
The property in Clerkenwell boasts the hidden dwelling behind a blast-proof underground door that can also be accessed through a private door on the terrace.
The property is now under offer, after having been on the market sine at least August of last year. The bunker was untouched for decades, but a recent renovation includes two underground rooms and features an electric supply.
In contrast to the underground dwelling, the stylish apartment offers high ceilings for a bright living space with an open-plan kitchen and built-in appliances. A patio terrace is also available
