An Englishman's home is his castle...

An incredible property that looks like a miniature castle has come on the market for the bargain price of £250,000.

The Grade II listed building was erected in 1720 and features an amazing turret that boasts countryside and harbour views.

It was originally used as a watch tower and the rest of the building was used as an office by the harbour master.

The building, which is in Whitley Bay, Tyne and Wear, boasts four bedrooms, an open plan kitchen and dining room, and a spacious living room.

It also has a yard at the back and is just a stone's throw away from the stunning coastal walk surrounding Colywell Bay.

The property is being sold through Next2Buy estate agents who are based in Tyneside.
