A LONDON flat with its own garden and parking space has caused a stir for a strange reason.  

The one-bedroom property hit the market recently for just £165,000, but prospective tenants should be prepared for a serious catch.

The flat in South Norwood is described as a “one-bedroom investment property” that is located within a three-storey building.

Situated close to Norwood Junction and Selhurst railway stations it has excellent access to public transport.

And according to relators, the flat is more than £100,000 cheaper than the average house price for the area, making it a steal.

However, one major catch is that you are only able to view the flat externally.

Potential buyers can view the property from the inside via images and videos provided by estate agents.

But crucially they are not allowed to step foot inside before getting the keys, report MyLondon.

Clive and Emson Land and Property Auctioneers wrote on the online advert: “Applicants may view the lot externally only.”

But buyers can expect to be granted a property that boasts a communal garden and off-street parking for residents.
