In fairness, it's only £25,000, but considering it was listed as a one bedroom residential property...

This is just a beach hut on the South coast of the UK - probably somewhere near Bournemouth. They're pretty common - usually hired out for a day or so, to let you chill out by the sea with some shelter. I imagine buying one of these and renting it out is pretty lucrative.

Yes I know. But it was listed as a one bedroom house, which it decidedly is not.

The answer to that is probably because there's no suitable category for this property on the site.

I don’t understand what is embarrassing about this?

Looks like a reasonably photographed, reasonably described, reasonably priced vacation property.

It's a changeing shed listed as a one bedroom house for £25,000. I'm not sure what's reasonable about that.

Isn’t that the going rate?

What is the normal market price for a beach hut?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm honestly not sure what the typical asking price is for a changing booth, but it's definitely not a one bedroom house.

This is one of those British changing booths where everyone has their own changing booth for some reason. Which is why the front is made of windows.

This is essentially like buying an rv parking spot on the lakeside in a campground, at any time of year no matter how busy it is, you can turn up.and your spot and your shit is right there. Taking my family to the beach would be a whole lot less of a ball ache if I knew I had my spot, with the buckets and spades and frisbees and towels and shit already there. Somewhere to sit and get out of the sun, no taking giant umbrellas or folding gazebos and stuff. Turn up, open the doors, open the cooler... enjoy the day.

If I were moderately wealthy this would be a nice thing to have.

i’ve literally walked past that lil hut!

I assumed it was just a little changing booth for people on the beach to use.
