Ever fancied living in the wilderness?
Surrounded by nothing but sand, sea and stones, you could own your very own detached bungalow in Britain’s only desert.
Dungeness is a headland on the coast of Kent, formed largely of a shingle beach.

Sheltering a large area of low-lying land, it is a ‘hidden gem’ loved by celebrities, from musician Ed Sheeran to comedian Micky Flanagan.
And now, a bungalow with a view of the old steam train railway route serving Romney Marsh with views of the English Channel is being sold for £875k by Wards, as reported by What’s The Jam.
After previously being used as an Airbnb holiday home, the property comes with an artist’s studio and a “large shingle garden”.
The brightly-coloured bungalow also boasts three bedrooms, two bathrooms and quirky interiors.
Described as an “authentic fisherman’s cottage” and previously owned by artist Helen Gillilan, the property has attracted a lot of attention online.

“Dungeness is a weird place,” one user said.
“It felt like an eerie ghost town when I visited. There’s no way I’d pay anything close to that price!”
Another person said: “Love Dungeness. This looks like you’d be living inside a Wes Anderson movie!”

“That’s a yes from me,” added another user.
“£875k for a house that will probably be inundated by 2075,” commented someone else.
Another person added: “I never would’ve expected Dungeness to be that expensive. It’s an interesting place for a day trip but it looks like a bleak place to live.”
Dungeness is home to a lighthouse, a few pubs and a power station.
If you fancy a life of isolation and atmosphere – this might be the one for you.
