It has no windows, no bathroom, no cooking facilities – it doesn’t even have running water.

Even so, this garage, which has been advertised as a “studio flat” could be yours to own for £177,000 in the heart of one of London’s most expensive areas.

The garage in Knightsbridge, which measures at 5.15 m x 2.75 m is being sold on a 41 year leasehold. It comes with an electric door and an internal light.

A spokesperson the estate agents listing the garage explained that the garage had been advertised incorrectly due to an issue with its database. Douglas & Gordon has since taken the listing down, he added.

The spokesperson apologised for the error and said: “Our bespoke data base does not distinguish between flats and garages but we have taken the listing down and we’re working to rectify it.”
