The safe rooms were designed to be hideaways where the owners go escape for either protection or just hide from the kids. There's even a secret escape way through the master bath that leads to the secret garden outside.

Even the things inside are up for auction. That includes ivory, paintings and even a Mercedes Benz.

The house, which sits on over four acres, is listed at $2.5 million.

The property also has a basketball court, a tennis court, several Koi ponds and even a 27-foot tall scale model of the Washington Monument.

So those in the market for an out of the way home that is as safe as you can get it, this one just might have your name on it.

The auction will take place at the home Sunday at noon. The starting bidding price will be $1 million.
