Garish studio flat is miserable for £700-a-month – but it hides amazing surprise that might just be worth it
A TINY studio flat in a seaside town has gone on the market for £700 a month - but it might be worth the huge cost for one very good reason.
The property in Bournemouth, Dorset doesn't offer much bang for the renter's buck.
There are just two rooms inside. One features a single bed, two-seater sofa and small kitchen, while the second is a bathroom.
The living space is so small that it appears to be impossible to fully open the door without hitting the mattress.
However, there's likely to be a long queue of people hoping to view the property, in spite of its drawbacks.
That's because it boasts a whopping outdoor pool in the garden.

The pool, which is available to residents only, is heated - meaning keen swimmers can take a dip all year round.
Deckchairs have been placed on the flagstones around the spot, so neighbours can meet in the summer and enjoy their swim.
And the pool isn't the only perk of taking on the flat.
Beach-lovers will be thrilled to know they're only a ten-minute walk away from Bournemouth's sandy shoreline.
