A ONE-BEDROOM flat in a seaside town could be yours for a bargain £18,000 – but the interior could put you off.

While the top-floor property boasts a spacious living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, it is nowhere near ready to move into.

The rooms come with a thick coating of dust and rubble and great piles of abandoned furniture.

There is also paint and plaster peeling from the damp-looking walls, and newspaper and what look like takeaway leaflets littered on the floors.

It is in such a bad state, its Rightmove listing warns “internal upgrading is required prior to habitation”.

If you can look beyond the mess, the one-bed flat in the “sought after” village of West Kilbride in North Ayrshire, Scotland, comes with several redeeming features.

2-storey home with acres of land on sale for £80k - but wait until you see inside
Two-bed semi-detached on sale for just £50,000 - but it comes with a catch

On top of the spacious living areas, there is also a large communal garden to the rear.

It is also well-located close to West Kilbride train station, and only a short distance from the beach at Ardneil Bay.

Future Property Auctions Glasgow, which is auctioning the property, describes it as being “nestled in a truly idyllic location” in the “affluent family area”.

The “perfect investment” flat is going up for auction on April 21 and is expected to fetch £18,000.
