You can buy your own English beach for just £50k… with nearby holiday resort and seaside theme park
IF you love the idea of having a beach all to yourself, you soon could – with a stretch of the UK coastline on sale for £50,000.
Found across Skegness, four plots of beach are on sale for the price of the UK’s average house deposit.
According to Statista, the average deposit put down for a house was £53,414 last year.
So for less than that, you could get around one acre of the seaside.
The larger stretch of beach costs around £250,000, which is around 35.5 acres.
Want to splash out on it all? You could then own a huge 83.7 acres of sand.
They are being sold by Poyntons Consultancy and advertised on Rightmove, as reported by Luxury Property News.
The listing reads: “The tourist resort of Ingoldmells along with Skegness and Mablethorpe is located on the Lincolnshire coast famous for its tourist attractions including Fantasy Island, Butlins holiday resorts as well as a large number of other attractions.
