If HBO’s “The Last of Us” has you worried that a pandemic-related zombie apocalypse feels a little too real, here’s a list that seems apt to withstand that level of dystopia.

A massive 323-acre lot in Michigan is now up for sale for $6 million, The Post has learned.

The house was replete with a 13,500-square-foot mansion, two private lakes, a conservatory, and — most notably — a 5,000-square-foot bunker, and was initially listed for $7 million.

The property also has three other homes, including a caretaker’s farmhouse, a cedar dwelling set around a lake – and a stone cottage.

Samantha Reiss and Catherine Menichino of Compass hold the listing with Mary Noneman of Five Star Real Estate.

More than $10 million went into development, according to the listing agents, who add that this would mean the new demand is relatively cheap.

The agents emphasize that for land developers, a $1 billion Ford plant is slated to open in 2026 in Marshall, Michigan – five minutes from the compound.

The property is located on 323 acres of forest land.

Described as an “unprecedented property” for a “self-sufficient lifestyle,” the compound offers privacy that is buried deep in the woods and off-grid. Nothing makes that possible more than the most striking residential facility.

“Prepare for the piece de resistance, the most unique experience upon entering the 5,000-square-foot bunker, with everything you could ever need or desire for off-grid living,” the listing reads.

The bunker features a raised plant bed with grow lights for food growth, a soundproof firing range, two kitchens, up to four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and two hidden entrances and exits.

It is built 30 feet deep and connects to the main house.
