Also crazy with parking spaces, though in some locations & use patterns, would come in a lot cheaper than paying for parking adhoc.
This is not the case for beach huts, as you can sit on the beach for free.
It might be tempting if you have kids who are into watersports, but it isn’t secure enough to store expensive equipment so you might still be into hauling that on and off the beach every time, most beach hut rules do not permit you to store small sailing boats (lasers, dinghys, etc.) and many don’t permit storage of anything except in the summertime. It is common for these to have tight restrictions on your disposal of the hut by sale or in a will & on what you must do in the event it is washed away in a storm or vandalised.
So you have a shed on a very busy, stony beach, which you can’t do much with, anc which will have high ongoing costs. If people find £25k an acceptable price, that’s up to them, but it is crazy.
Anyhow, I believe the ad was posted here because it was listed as a one-bedroom house, which it objectively is not. If you’re caught sleeping in your hut, you’ll find it repossessed very fast, and yes - they do check.
One you’re explicitly banned from staying overnight in. No plumbing, no electric. Extremely restrictive covenants. Very high service charges.
They have a charm, and one wouldn’t expect them to be cheap, but £25,000 is plain daft.
What do these generally cost?
Everyone is telling me £25k is nuts, but nobody seems to know what it’s actually worth.
I’ve seen parking spaces sell for more.
£25k is about normal for these huts.
