A bungalow in an idyllic Devon location is on the market for £35,000 - but its estate agents warn it is in a "ruinous" condition.

Bridewell Bungalow boasts an amazing location at Hawkchurch, near Axminster in Devon.

However, the derelict timber building needs more than a little work to make it liveable.

Marketing agents Symonds & Sampson even has a health and safety warning on the property details stating that "the building is in very poor condition and those viewing should not attempt to enter".

It has not been lived in since the 1960s.

With a guide price of £35,000, Bridewell Bungalow is set to be sold by public auction at The Guildhall in Axminster on Thursday November 4, 2021 at 2pm.
