Beyond its proximity to stunning woodland and the coastline, the home contains its own Second World War subterranean bunker.‌Access is gained through a hatch which opens to expose ladders.

The bunker, which is currently used for gym equipment, is described as robustly constructed and nestled discreetly within the grounds.It seems to offer decent potential for other purposes - including a wine cellar, secure storage area, hobby space, workshop, home gym, or perhaps a creative studio.
