When Post Malone Transformed a Mansion into a Doomsday Bunker

If the world comes to an end during Post Malone’s lifetime, he knows exactly where he will be — right at home in Utah. After purchasing a stunning property in Cottonwood Heights in 2018, he has transformed it into a doomsday bunker. Although he hasn’t shared specific details about these end-of-the-world features, he’s stated that the home will be “fun until the world ends, but when the world ends, it’s gonna be functional.”

The newly-turned country artist bought the expansive 12,702-square-foot mansion, which he calls “the sticks,” for $3 million. Cottonwood Heights is a relatively secluded region outside Salt Lake City, surrounded by mountains, canyons, and lakes. Malone’s residence boasts five bedrooms and seven bathrooms on 6.75 acres of land.

In the event of an apocalypse, it doesn’t seem like a bad place to be stuck. His property includes a gym, pool, basketball court, wine cellar, and various other amenities. The home’s finishes are modern and stunning. According to TMZ, Malone had plans to construct a recording studio and install 30 bunk beds for his friends.

While speaking with Joe Rogan on his podcast in 2021, the “I Had Some Help” singer explained his attraction to the state of Utah.

“It’s incredible,” he commented on the scenery. “It’s just like you’re a f—ing dot on the entire globe.”

“Without sounding corny,” Malone continued. “It’s like you feel like you’re a part of something bigger, but you’re so insignificant and then you can just say I accept everything around me. I’m relaxed, and I’m at peace.”

The change of pace from Los Angeles was also very appealing to him. The hustle and bustle of the music industry in LA had negatively impacted his creative process. Malone’s love for his Cottonwood Heights community is so profound that he even appeared in a promotional video for the town.

Building an end-of-the-world bunker implies thinking about how the world might end. For Malone, it wouldn’t be an alien invasion or a war among humans.

“Catastrophe — natural catastrophe,” he shared in an interview. “It could be an asteroid or Yellowstone blowing up.”
