It looks like a typical tiny British wooden beach hut from the outside, but this is no ordinary cabin.

It is a Tardis inside with two floors, gadgets galore and is expected to sell for £250,000.

The newly-built hut measures just 23ft by 6ft, but has a marble wet room and a fitted kitchen with granite worktops.

Cosy: The 23ft by 6ft beach hut can sleep four and has a fitted kitchen with granite worktops

It can sleep four people - two on the ground floor and two on a mezzanine - and the owner has a private terrace right on the beach.

There's under-floor central heating and electric windows which close automatically when it rains. It also has Freeview TV, DVD and wireless internet.

The hut in Shaldon, Devon, is in the middle of a row of five, with the others being rented out for up to £120 a night.

Developer Bernard Howard, 64, said: “It looks like a beach hut from the outside but it is like a Tardis inside.

'The position is exceptional. At high tide you can practically dip your toes into the sea.'

Catherine Edwards, of Bradleys estate agents in nearby Teignmouth, said the hut is attracting a lot of buyers and there will be sealed bids for it.

She added: 'We were asking for offers in excess of £200,000, but it is expected to go for a lot more than that.'
