… if you’re into nuclear power plants
It’s a property that has everything: a fisherman’s cottage a mere five minutes from the sea, with a private driveway, half an acre of garden and sweeping views across some of the most beautiful coastal landscape England has to offer.
It’s just a shame the estate agents failed to mention that it was in the shadow – quite literally – of one of Europe’s biggest nuclear power stations.
Westbeach, on sale for £247,000 is a small three-bed bungalow that is less than 80 yards from the perimeter of the brooding, concrete presence of Dungeness A and Dungeness B power stations.
The stations, which emit a ghostly hum day and night, are so close a strong-armed fielder could hurl a cricket ball over its fence if they were standing in the property’s garden.
However, this rather major downside is being ignored by the estate agents, who have managed to focus purely on its bijou charm. It is being marketed as “a property not to be missed,” with a light-filled sitting room, complete with original 1930s wood panelling, a modern kitchen, including an all-important island.

get a job there and that person would have it made
All that and you don’t even need lights at night because everything glows in the dark.
Yep, I agree with infidel. You could wake up 10 minutes before work and still make it in on time.
I would buy it and sell food to all those workers there, and maybe let high teenagers camp out and stare at it for like a buck a night.
About $500,000 for that little place? That’s worse than the California coast!
Maffu – What does “bijou” mean?
They should rename the buildings to Dungeness and Dragons
