A California home that was used as a bomb and meth-making operation before it was raided by the FBI earlier this year is now on the market for $1.55 million – and the buyer will have to foot the bill to decontaminate the property.
2,743 sq. ft. 6-bedroom home located on a quiet cul-de-sac in San Jose “has [an] inactive Meth lab and meth contamination,” according to the listing on Zillow.
The home “has not been cleared of contamination” and will be sold to the buyer “as is,” the listing says.
Cleanup costs will be applied to the price of the home, which was listed at $1.425 million on October 13 before increasing by $125,000 a week later.
Access to the property is prohibited pending cleanup and clearance from the Santa Clara County Health Department, according to the release.

In March, the home was raided by San Jose Police and FBI agents who arrested Peter Karasev for allegedly possessing chemicals used to make bombs, meth and firearms, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.
Karasev, a Russian national, allegedly planted several bombs around San Jose, targeting critical infrastructure such as Pacific Gas & Electric transformers. Fortunately, no one was injured in the blast, authorities said.
He had been living in the house with his wife and three children, although it was unclear whether he owned the property, according to The Chronicle.
His wife, who has not been charged with any crime, and children were evacuated after his arrest.
Karasev was charged with three counts of child endangerment, arson, lighting a destructive device with intent to injure or frighten, tampering with power lines and possessing materials intended to make explosives.

His arrest came after months of surveillance by the authorities. Afterwards, he reportedly told investigators he was upset about the Russia-Ukraine war.
The home, located in San Jose’s Vista Park neighborhood, was previously for sale in 2021 for $1.51 million, according to The Chronicle.
The 2021 Compass listing for the home features a modern interior, new appliances and light fixtures, a swimming pool and “a finished enclosure that could be … a female enclosure or a man cave,” the newspaper reported.
