A sea fort used in the Second World War is up for auction, with the bidding starting at about $60,000.

Bull Sand Fort, off the Lincolnshire coast in northern England, was built to accommodate 200 troops and can only be accessed by boat or helicopter.

The fort is now listed with real estate firm Savills and is set to go under auction on July 19.

“It will require an imaginative buyer with a project in mind but suggestions for future uses so far have included a high-end hotel, restaurant, Airbnb, grand design style personal dwelling, retreat and a tourist attraction,” said Steven Morish of Savills.

The fort is in need of a little love in the form of refurbishment, Morish says, but has potential for alternative uses if permitted. However, it is grade II listed, meaning any development plans must first be approved.
