The £400,000 end-of-terrace property in Alton, Hampshire, is spread across three floors and comes with off-road parking, a garage and what might be Britain’s most convenient workspace.

Estate agents Homes describe it as “spacious” and “well-proportioned” with rooms that can be used “in a variety of ways”.
