Front Row Beach Hut is on the coveted Findhorn Beach and has just been listed for sale, among more substantial flats and houses on the property portal Rightmove.

Certainly any prospective buyers will not have to set aside much time for viewing, as the floor space is a cosy 2 x 2.5 metres, making it the smallest property currently for sale in Scotland.

But according to the estate agent handling the sale, CCL Property in Elgin, owning a Findhorn Beach Hut is not just an investment in a prime seaside location but also in a more relaxed and tranquil lifestyle. The huts are designed and built to the highest standards, occupying a front row position on a world-renowned stretch of pristine beach.

Only a limited number of the huts have been approved by the Moray Council and they are highly sought-after.

Situated near the charming village of Findhorn, the beach is one of the most popular on the Moray Coast. The coastline offers miles of dunes and beach walks in a pleasant microclimate and the area is teeming with wildlife, including seals that can often be seen on the sandbank at the mouth of the River Findhorn during low tide.

Beach huts have been a feature at the location since the 1930s but in the last four years, 16 newly created huts have been added to the existing ten.

The hut for sale, priced at offers over £32,500, is of the new construction, and sits on piles that go 1.5m into the land. The walls have been constructed with marine-grade cladding to withstand the weather, with an internal lining of tongue and grooved boarding.

There may not be a huge amount of interior space or features, but there is enough room to store deckchairs, and to shelter from the weather with a flask of tea.

The hut is close to an accessibility ramp and steps. There is ample car parking, facilities and picnic areas are nearby – what more could you need for a great day out?
