WWII Bunker Transformed into a Modern Beachside Home

A home for a wannabe Bond villain

We think this converted WWII personnel bunker is the ultimate hideaway for any aspiring Scaramanga’s.

‍‍Built in 1942, Bunker Six Eighty One once housed 12 German soldiers and now stands as a modern 3-bedroom beachside home with a living roof, perfect for sundowners.

This project was a real labour of love and presented some unique challenges – like how to introduce natural light and ventilation into a space built to withstand artillery fire!

P.S. It’s the only fully converted personnel bunker in the British Isles (that we know of - pretty cool, right?)

“We’ve worked with A7 for over a decade, and as bunker conversion virgins, we needed a team who really understood the challenges of transforming a redundant space - especially a WWII relic - into something remarkable. We dedicated five years to this project, and A7 were with us all the way.”
