If you head beneath the bog-standard living room and down the spiral staircase, there is a private swimming pool tucked away.

The unbelievable feature is bolstered by its accompanying sauna and steam room, allowing residents to completely relax in the comfort of their own home.

With a further shower, seating area with folding glass doors, a modern kitchenette and a toilet, the lower floor truly makes a statement.

To make the place even more unique, part of the living room floor is glass meaning there is a clear view of the pool below.

The extraordinary pad, situated on Hornsey Road in Archway, North London, boasts buckets of potential upstairs too.

The open plan living area and kitchen give the flat a spacious feel, which leads onto a good-sized outdoor patio area.

One of the two double bedrooms even includes a stunning walk-in wardrobe, modern bathroom, and WC.

Although quite a lot has been crammed into this property, its spectacular high ceilings ensure it doesn't feel confined.

The flat is within walking distance to Crouch Hill and Upper Holloway stations, offering "a plethora of travel options and local amenities".

It even sits next to a Chinese takeaway - so it couldn't get much more convenient.

Despite its unbelievable facilities, the flat may need a little sprucing up.

It was earlier listed for £1.2 million with different agents in 2020 before Foxtons listed it earlier this year.

And if you enjoy quirky homes, why not take a look at this home that is the width of a DOOR that's been put on the market for £109,000.

But despite its narrow entrance, the aptly named "Backabit Cottage" is a quite spacious two-storey, one-bedroom, one-bathroom home.
