Default Zombie-Proof Homes

Anti-zombie strongholds for sale - Yahoo! Homes

Epic Lake Castle in Miami, FL



The Skinny: This insanely symmetrical, moat-surrounded masterpiece was designed by architect Charles Sieger. While it lacks a working drawbridge, simply destroying the only path that leads into the compound would be a logical first step.

Bonus Zombie Defense Feature: The rapper Birdman filmed a music video here, so there’s likely to be an automatic weapon or two that got left behind.

Nuclear Missile Silo Home in Saranac, NY



The Skinny: For a home that can withstand a zombie apocalypse, not to mention a nuclear apocalypse and other various apocalypses, $750,000 is a freakin’ bargain. Anyway, it’s a former nuclear silo-turned-luxury home. How cool is that?

Bonus Zombie Defense Feature: Paved air-strip gets a nod, but the real bread and butter is the former launch control center that sits behind doors made of three-inch concrete and mesh, 125 feet underground. Oh, and there’s a Jacuzzi down there, too.

Fortified Manse in Los Angeles, CA



The Skinny: This crazy compound is the (paranoid?) masterpiece of one AI V. Corbi, the founder of a company called SAFE (Strategically Armored & Fortified Environments) that specializes in stuff like mounting lasers on sharks, build missile-proof yachts, line Escalades with tank armor, panic rooms, etc. It’s also set on a private hilltop behind a pair of gates, and has a helipad.

Bonus Zombie Defense Feature: Not one, but two panic rooms and a pair of “safe cores,” which is basically when all the bedrooms go on lock-down mode with the twist of a doorknob.

East Sister Rock Island in Marathon, FL



The Skinny: Private, remote island with its own breaker that has been designed to be self-sustaining with wind turbines and solar panels.

Bonus Zombie Defense Feature: Property includes not only a dock, but also a helicopter pad for making your escape, which might come in handy if the zombies pull a "Dawn of the Dead" reboot and figure out how to make a ship out of corpses.

Castle Rogue’s Manor in Eureka Springs, AR



The Skinny: A massive and secluded mountain castle that could potentially provide residence for the masses. Also includes a six-floor “Gate’s Keeper” cottage, great hall and other structures.

Bonus Zombie Defense Feature: A pair of guard towers and other tall structures for scouting and medieval archer (and sniper) defense.

Modern Castle in Austin, TX



The Skinny: Concrete façade and a rooftop deck for headshot contests. Just under 4 acres and over 12,500 square feet provides enough room to take in a roaming survivor or two, you know, to help fight off forces, grow crops, repopulating Earth, etc. Pick and choose wisely, folks.

Bonus Zombie Defense Feature: 200-foot wood and steel escape home that leads from the main home to a private boathouse on the lake.

Missile-Proof Window Home in Cedar Key, FL



The Skinny: The name of this place kind of says it all, doesn’t it?

Bonus Zombie Defense Feature: Double-lock ship’s doors and Galvalume siding make this one pad that the walking dead wouldn’t want to mess with.

Jamesburg Earth Station in Carmel Valley, CA



The Skinny: A former space communications satellite used during the Kennedy administration that’s loaded with tons of tech stuff (albeit dated tech stuff). Other amenities include a 97-foot satellite, helipad, on-site gym and power generators.

Bonus Zombie Defense Feature: If you manage to get this thing running, you might be able to contact an extraterrestrial life force to do one of two things: 1) kill the zombies or 2) repopulate the earth with half-human, half-alien beings.

I don't like any of them.

Too popularized and well-known.

The key is to stay dynamic, not static.

I'll just have all my hookers, armed with AK47s, surround my truck, and put a cap in any zombie that comes close
