A beach hut has gone on sale for a "bargain" £70,000, in Branksome, Dorset.
The Bournemouth Daily Echo reports that some of its readers "may scoff at the hefty price tag" - but estate agent Alec Fry, from Savills in Canford Cliffs said: "When you see huts like these sell for more than £100,000 in Mudeford, suddenly £70,000 is not that expensive.
"These huts are seen more of an asset, people buy them as investments. In many ways they are a lot better investments than the rest of the housing market."
He added: "You can wait a lifetime for a chance to get a council one, so if you have a big house down here, people buy them so they can sell it as part of an overall package.
"To have one come on to the market is very, very rare and we expect a huge amount of interest."
