Advice please. 13:48 - Jul 9 with 2754 viewsfergalsharkey

I'm thinking of buying a lighthouse to use as a part time residence.
It's no longer functions and is half a mile from the coast (I wont say where it is) for obvious reasons.

The thing is you still have to pay council tax BUT there is no Bin collections or local amenities and you have to provide transport to and from the mainland yourself.
The current incumbents pay approx £750 a year, do you think this is right?

Good luck, lighthouses don't tend to show up very often.

There was one recently that was listed for some time and several potential buyers interested but didn't sell in the end - it was on, then off, then on again...


The market for lighthouses tends to be a bit rocky.

Ready! Steady! Cook!

You're thinking of buying a lighthouse, so you came on an Ipswich Town football forum for advice...

Surely there's a mumsnet or equivalent for Lighthouses, I'm sure HIGN have done a segment on Lighthouse monthly.


He's probably hoping that someone can shed some light on it....

Pay up and you can use it to reignite the good times with old flames.

You haven't confused lighthouse with farmhouse have you?


We very nearly bought a windmill last year. It is insanely cool, but we backed out once we realised you have to commission almost every single bit of furniture with a curved back.

Bloody hell, that's a blast from the past!

My old physics teacher used to compete in Van Der Graaf generator competitons. How they work, I have no clue.
