A ONE-of-a-kind mansion has gone on the market for £1.5million – and it hides a very fun secret.
The funfair themed house in St Leonard’s-on-Sea, East Sussex, comes complete with its very own bowling alley, as well as a flashing neon clown and coconut shy.
Its pride and joy is the huge bowling lane in the lounge where the new owners and their guests can perfect their strikes.
The 4,000sq ft property is a former Victorian Turkish bathhouse and dates back to the 1870s.
But there is little sign of any water inside now, with the current owners instead decking it out with carnival-inspired goodies.
Agents Platform Property, who are selling the house, said it was a “truly one of a kind property.”
They said: “It was formally a Victorian Turkish bathhouse, school swimming house and a glass factory, and is now a simply stunning family home.
“This incredible residence is positioned in a favoured location in St.Leonards-On-Sea, a stone's throw from the seafront.
