A RUINED World War Two gun tower with stunning sea views from its 40ft roof is on sale for £125,000.
Also a former coastguard tower, the old building on the West Sussex coast comes with planning permission.
The three-storey structure has been left to rot for more than a decade but it has potential to be revamped into a holiday home.
Located on the beach in Littlehampton, West Sussex, the building is on a prime coastal development spot.
It is being sold by Graham Butt Estate Agents of Littlehampton, who have described it as “a shell with great potential”.
It has a rusted spiral staircase and the paint throughout the building is peeling from the walls.
Martin Dear, from the estate agents, said: “At the moment it is a bit of a shell but it has huge potential.
“It’s been empty for about ten years and to be honest probably needs gutting out.
“There is planning permission to upgrade it but as part of the conditions it can only be stayed in for 28 days per year, per person.
“With that in mind we’re looking primarily at a holiday rental market, where people will always be interested in something so unique.”
He added: “From a buyers point of view we will have no trouble selling something like this.
“Potential buyers will always be drawn to its uniqueness even though the market as a whole could be deemed as limited.
“We’ve already had a few deals fall through on this one and would expect it to sell soon.”
The tower was originally built to house coastguards in 1930.
During the Second World War a gun was mounted on the top floor with the ammunition stored below.

As Littlehampton was home to a special operations unit commanded by Ian Fleming, it is even possible the James Bond author visited the building himself.
It carried on being a coastguard station until 1986 when it was replaced by the existing building next door to it.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
