WW3 Will Be Non-Lethal EMP

NOT Nuclear!

We were a little uncomfortable at listing this underground Cumbrian Nuclear bunker as we did not wish to feed the media obsession with WW3 worries of Armageddon.

.
^^ Unique Property Bulletin Have Helped Sell 10 Small Bunkers ^^
Across A 30 Year Span
Please Do Not Copy This Artwork Without Obtaining Permission From:

^^ The Author & Artist: Mr Bob Marshall ^^

Weirdly, because we have helped to sell 9 (now 10) of these small bunkers over the past 30 years and especially as we had helped a good friend with his former MoD military EMP buildings as at Balado…

.

^^ Unique Property Bulletin Assisted Selling ^^

This Ex-MoD EMP-Resistant Bunker At Balado.

Because all of this EMP coverage upset several of our readers, we did NOT want to distress anyone. So our editor, Russ McLean contacted one of our readers who “serves at the pleasure of the president” (we had to find out what that mean too!).

This is mentioned so that our readers can have reassurance that the guy asking the questions has reasonable credentials: Click Here.

Given the gravitas of this matter, it is unusual but here are some bona fides. This police officer investigated and submitted many cases to the Crown Office & Procurators Fiscal Service (here). Well experienced in asking questions and making sure the answers are truthful. No adverse HR matters. Police service passed all milestones from confirmation in rank after 2 years, to advanced police driving year and station-officer in years 3 and beyond etc, progressing to one-officer station. Long service cut short through injury in the line of duty. Credentials: Click Here.

What does all this EMP and nuclear bunker stuff mean?

Should people be worried about WW3?

The answer is that World War 3 has already started.

You just have not been told that.

Yet!

The narrative that follows (and we could write a Tolstoy length book) just distils the essence of a challenging 10 months trying to keep our internet website stable and stop someone bu66ering about with our Iphones!

The photo above is to give some gravitas that we do NOT do conspiracy theories. Only material that is corroborated as truthful and beyond reproach is on our website.

Even then we really just want to stick to sharing details of unusual places in which to live.

But it would be just plain wrong to stand idly by, when so many folk are genuinely worried about Russia starting a nuclear war.

We also recognise that the unfortunate, but well intentioned fact we have featured so many nuclear bunkers over the past 30 years PLUS the unusual fact we have featured the ONLY large-scale EMP repository capable of housing several thousand computers to become an EMP-protected data centre… Balado EMP base, on these pages. But Balado is off the market and Sedbergh mini-bunker sold. So we do NOT have any skin in the game on that score.

Also, we are NOT an estate agency. We charge NO fee. So why make up this sort of excrement?

We don’t normally curse, but sadly (we are being ironic) one of the “bad” things that will happen when the EMP Weaponry starts to be used in earnest is that TWITTER WILL CEASE TO EXIST. Seriously? We loathe Twitter. It is a cesspit of hatred and the sooner it is extinguished the better. Sorry Elon but you backed a nasty dud there.

***********


From impeccable sources we have this detail…

1]. President Putin’s legacy wish is to fulfil his promise to the Russian people: That he will bring back the USSR, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (or at least some format of the USSR).

Between October and December 2023, our website became unstable soon after we started featuring EMP (Electro magnetic Pulse) bases such as Balado. We thought the next thing was a hoax. It was not…

This Was Not  Hoax

Our Website Became Unstable & Outages Became Frequent.

Our Iphones Switched Themselves Off & On.

Without Our Assistance!

The spookiest bit is when we asked one of our readers (at Ambassadorial level) if there was any way to reassure our readers there would be NO nuclear war (we had to phrase the request in a way that would NOT professionally embarrass our friend). She was able to steer us towards American Freedom of Information (FOI) material. In the USA, unlike the UK, they tend to bury their FOI disclosure logs rather than go all Jackson Pollock with the heavy black-ink “Sharpie” marker pen.

Whereas here in Old Blighty, the replies we get via FOI tend to be heavily redacted with a lot of black ink obscuring the important stuff.

The EMP threat can be nuclear, but in USA terms that have gathered traction are… 

2]. The EMP Weaponry that has been stockpiled by Russia is NON-LETHAL. That way the logic goes, is that it CAN be used by Russia against the West without nuclear causation of Mutually-Assured-Destruction (and Russia has some measure of plausible deniability).

There are vast swathes of public domain material from bona fide sources such as made public by Gunnery Sergeant Joshua E. Owen of the United States Marine Corps (here). The current USA war-gaming analysis tends towards NON-LETHAL EMP.

3]. The received wisdom at this end was we ought to backup all of our files and place the data storage devices in a “Faraday Cage” (disarmingly popular from Ebay).

We are still trying to get our heads around what an EMP is!

.You cannot see EMP because you cannot see electrons.

You cannot see magnetism.
In the photo above, you can clearly seethe devastating
effect magnetism would have on that computer!
EMP is an induce pulse that causes a massive and
overwhelming surge in electrons.
EMP kills computers NOT people.
That is why President Putin developed
a massive arsenal or EMP weaponry.
Not many people in the West noticed EMP Weaponry being developed…

In January 2024, when we asked (4) how we would stop the malarky of the website and Iphones from so many glitches, and; (5) could we recognise when the EMP monkey-business might be headed this way, plus; (6) how we might reassure folk there would be NO nuclear WW3 the reply seemed far-fetched…

4]. You cannot stop a “State Actor” from interfering with your equipment. In plain language, a “State Actor” is a nation’s security service. There is little internet or even Iphone technology that can withstand that level of focus.

Oh joy. We were tempted to shut down the website and go renovate one of the caves we listed a while back…

.

.^^ Cave Life As Featured Previously ^^

^^ In Unique Property Bulletin ^^

 

5]. In January 2024, we were then warned to watch out for a “wobble” in the internet!”

That internet “wobble” appeared to happen on Friday 19th July 2024 (fact: click here).

We have no clue whether the Microsoft internet “glitch” was to do with Crowdstrike, or as we were told it was President Putin strong-arming his negotiations to let the Western Leaders know his EMP weaponry works.

6]. All we would like is for people to live their lives in relative peace and NOT have the threat of Nuclear War being trolled like it was a fun sport against Western civilisation by President Putin and functional alcoholic, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev (here and here).

So what do we make of the past 10 months of our website and phones behaving bizarrely and the nuclear bunkers being like catnip on this website and some of our impeccably sourced readers gifting wise counsel?

Simply we believe the same words that we started this segment with…


.A Good Result

WW3 Will Be Non-Lethal EMP

NOT Nuclear!


The contemporaneous social media linked immediately below these words might help reduce worries of the “lethal” sort of EMP and Heaven forbid a nuclear conflagration.

The choice?

A]. For humans to melt as in the Terminator nuke scenes.

or…

B]. Facebook and Twitter to melt and Mark Zuckerberg is forced to get a proper job, whilst humanity can finally look up from being handcuffed to their phones…

We Would Love To Be Free Off Of

Twitter & Facebook For A While.

How About You?

There are, of course, very bad things from an EMP conflagration.

Social media would go offline for several weeks, the banking system may melt. But the NHS will find a way.

Humanity managed quite well before the internet.

When you see the worry on the face of Elon Musk about Artificial Intelligence, then perhaps President Putin melting AI with his EMP launchers might help cure those ills.

The following (ironically posted on social media) is what we believe from the corroborated evidence we have seen and includes the reasons WHY President Putin has chosen EMP Weaponisation…

As for the ANSWER to what the Cumbrian Nuclear Bunker made at auction?

We reckoned the Cumbrian Nuclear Bunker we featured would make

between £25,000 and £35,000 maximum.

It was a bit of a stunner when the

hole-in-the-ground made £48,000…

It’s also nice when folk say “thank you.”

This is the latest in our list of nuclear bunkers (or as the former service personnel knew them as: ROC ~ UKWMO Bunkers).

This bunker has several interesting extras, such as additional land and off-street parking.

But the most valuable addition to this underground bunker is the fact it has a LANDLINE TELEPHONE and the option to connect BROADBAND. That is an extremely rare element that has, at some significant cost to the owner, been kept alive and connected to this very day. In our humble opinion at Unique Property Bulletin, the LANDLINE and BROADBAND is a very good use of initiative from the owner. Why? On so many levels with modern broadband, this underground bunker becomes vastly more appealing.

We Have Managed These Types of Project Before.

This weekend, 9th and 10th March 2024, we have a special feature article. It follows on from the article we wrote in 2016 about the deteriorating Noss Head Lighthouse Station. A group of 24 Unique Property Bulletin readers ended up buying Noss Head Lighthouse Station and renovating the buildings. That was an example of successful Unique Property mischief and adventures made real. Now we spotted a derelict village by the sea. There are 34 dwellings. Each works out at £8,500 after legal conveyancing and title registration fees. 34 people/couples would have their own house in a magnificent location for less than the price of a second hand car. Of course there is a lot more to this. Attached are photos and the initial feature article.

These are the first steps, especially the Planning Permission files and drawings for you to enjoy…

Wet Wet Wet

Water Tower


Sorry, This Is Now

SOLD

The notes below are archived for your reference in case this water tower comes back onto the sale market.

How Do We Choose Candidate Properties?

Several ways!

Here are just a couple in this latest update on our social media feed…

Marti Pellow just happened to be singing in the background.

This brilliant musician may have helped find you a unique home…

 

^^ Perry Water Tower ^^

The Drive, Perry, Huntingdon PE28 0SS

Photo Courtesy of the very decent Simon Judd and the kindly host, Geograph.

We are scratching the old wooden top heads here! The Perry Water Tower SOLD last year was £290,000. Now, it is for sale at £350,000. That is £60,000 more. Yet does NOT appear to include a successful Planning Permission (to convert into a home) or any meaningful expenditure to warrant a steep £60,000 profit. Especially from our experience, this water tower is already at the top of it’s value (they can go for less that £100,000).

So we would CAUTION our readers…

PLEASE DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE.

We would ONLY expect this water tower to be worth £60,000 more (just 11 months later) if the intermediate owner HAD successfully ADDED the crucial and valuable Planning Permission.

We have looked and can find NO record of a granted or approved Planning Permission on Perry Water Tower.

Just some nice photos of what Perry Water Tower MIGHT look like (click here).

But someone, likely the new owner will have to do a lot of hard and expensive work SECURING THE VITAL PLANNING PERMISSION to convert this FROM a water tower TO a home. That is the red-tape that MUST be done (plus extensive and expensive BUILDING WARRANTS), before even just one house-conversion brick may be added or subtracted.

The fact that this water tower has been hanging about since 4th December 2023 on Rightmove UNSOLD after having been sold already for around £290,000 on 10th May 2023 does not auger well.

=> If any of our readers can help us, and research a bit more on the Local Authority planning website to see if there has even been a “pre-app” planning permission enquiry and share your findings in the comments  section on our social media feeds (click here and scroll downward until you find the relevant post), that would be very much appreciated). Thank you.

Consequently, and with all we have seen so far at Perry Water Tower and much of which is included here and on our social media review page, we don’t like advising this sort of thing, but it is based on 37 years tapping away at this keyboard and the experience from many very helpful Unique Property Bulletin readers,..

We do NOT value this water tower at the current guide of £350,000. We value Perry Tower in the current condition and with NO Planning Permission at approximately…

£249,000.

To find the actual result needs a little work by you

Property Detective Sure Lock Homes!

Click Here 

(Archived For Safety: Click Here)

Even then, that is a high price for high tower when compared with other, similar sales. The last water tower of similar construction/style that one our readers went to bid on was guided at around £40,000 and sold for £101,000. Even at £101,000 the eyebrows were raised that £101,000 was a very good result for the seller. So here the current £350,000 wishful price comes from is difficult to fathom.

Here at Unique Property Bulletin we have owned buildings where flooding is an issue. We raised the floors by a foot (concrete) and built substantial flood defences around the perimeter. All valuable items were upstairs. Downstairs was minimal furnishing (actually used for sleeping ~ with flood alarms fitted). That cured the flood problem in Argyll. Here in Tillicoultry it is a challenge to consider what the best remedy would be.

We feature ALL our updates daily or if we are busy at work, every couple of days, on our social media pages. Please note, Unique Property Bulletin is NOT an estate agency. It is a not-for-profit publication run by volunteers.

Please feel free to “follow”” our Facebook page so you do not miss anything. We cover the ENTIRE UK…


UPDATE (Since we were alerted about the local flooding issue)…

It is also worth mentioning that given the flood local folk endured, maybe go a bit easy with the haggling for this building. It would have been traumatic for the owners and neighbours. It is an important matter, to be aware of how distressing a local flood can be (we know, we’ve had it happen).  Also worth chatting with the neighbours about maybe altering the police station (if you buy it) by extending out the back so that there is a bigger FIRST FLOOR, with a significant amount at the back built over open air (on pillars) for car parking on the ground floor area. If you have your living accommodation and your home-office/studio on the upstairs first-floor, you will be much safer and your home will survive better if there is another flood.

Leave the pre-existing ground floor minimally furnished. You may well set a good template on how to survive the worries and hazards that come with ever increasing numbers of floods.

Affordable Waterside

PLEASE can (the rare and small minority of) new readers of Unique Property Bulletin NOT do a drive-by-trolling. YES we know about Global Warming and the concerns about rising water levels. But rather than make some rude comment, please be constructive. Build a new house with an imaginative engineering design that is on some form of jack-up leg system to protect you from flooding risks. Or a myriad of alternative flood-protection constructions. Thanks.

You may need to scroll down this page to find hat you came here for. This is because we add fresh unique property for sale regularly and he older buildings listed tend to slip down the rankings on our Bulletin pages…

Also we are still “embedding” the various updates into this main page. We are just a small group of volunteers, so the substantially increased number of unique properties being added is taking a fair amount of time.

We are aiming for a daily update on our social media pages.

Let’s see if we can outlast this phase of the growth of Unique Property Bulletin…

Dunbeath Castle Estate

An Example of Possibly Splitting Titles

Into Affordable Segments

 

^^ Dunbeath Castle ^^

From Rightmove headlines it looks like the price is £25 million.

Not so.

There are 20 buildings on this estate.

So the castle would be more like £9 million.

With the other houses being capable

of sales between £175,000 and £495,000

For example, if we advised that this estate can be title-split at HM Land Registry/Registers of Scotland, for the values at £175,000 to £495,000 we would wager that might change the perspective of folk at either end of the house/castle buying spectrum.

=> PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT go off and aggravate Savills estate agents with title-splits. It is highly likely the trustees representing the former owner, who has sadly passed away, will just want ONE cheque for the £25,000,000.

What the directors at Unique Property Bulletin Ltd (formerly Argyll Group plc) have managed in past instances where an empty “Grade A” listed building is art risk of deteriorating (and they are significantly more costly to maintain). We simply buy the whole estate and sell each house, plus the ideal of an acre each to those who have lived on the estate (as a priority because this is their home).

=> Our philosophy based on real-world cases is that most folk can happily keep ONE house in good order. But 21 houses AND an iconic castle? There are very few folk can manage that without suffering a significant amount of stress and anguish. So we believe that title-splitting is a good thing (when surpluses are KEPT ONSITE and reinvested into the Grade A listed buildings). In the case of Dunbeath Castle, there is an important peatland project that will also need significant funding too.

Besides, it is close to government policy in Scotland to reform land ownership so that all folk get a “fair” bite at the cherry.

Here at Unique Property Bulletin we are non-political.

=> Our prime concern is to avoid Grade A listed buildings degrading into splendid ruins!

Hence this title-split article.

If we start in reverse order and on the basis of title splits, here is a sample of the 20 buildings that MIGHT be capable of title-splitting into 22 separate items (contact Unique Property Bulletin NOT Savills if anything gets your unique property taste buds tingling.

EXAMPLE OF A TITLE-SPLIT

Our Valuation? Just £175,000…

Worth £175,000?

This is how the directors of Unique Property Bulletin have saved other “Grade A” listed buildings, including “Grade A’s” in Caithness, from being vandalised and becoming derelict. Ironically, 5 Grade A buildings in the far north for which we project managed the renovation were formerly the property of the same clan that used to own Dunbeath Castle. That earlier renovation from the worry of dereliction was regarded by the local community as a success. This is all we want: to help preserve iconic and historic buildings that have unique and pretty impressive characteristics.

=> As for the other 20 houses on the Dunbeath Castle estate, we are NOT going to suggest valuations as the next step in that respect is to have a proper RICS survey on each home.

Also there is the modest matter of our directors rustling up £25 million from our former Argyll Group plc HNWs for a few months (HNW means a High Net Worth person).

Maybe let us have your thoughts on what you would value some of the 20 houses if they were title-split and sold separately for an affordable amount?

If you have never lived on a magnificent estate, it is not suitable for everyone, but if you become beguiled by life in these places, it really does get into your DNA.

In a good way.

Simply put, the headline of £25 million will put off many buyers.

But if we rephrase that as £9 million for the caste, £5 million for the 28,000 acres and…

=> Castle Estate homes for between £175,000 and £495,000.

Then that puts an entirely different perspective on this matter.

It ensures a much faster sale. Less likelihood of building becoming dilapidated and then ruinous: eventually ending up on the Buildings at Risk Register: Click Here.
