A tiny cottage that resembles a Tardis from Doctor Who has come on the market - and it is so small that its entrance can barely be seen. Backabit Cottage, whose name gives it away, is set back from the road and wedged between two ordinary sized houses. The petite home in a town in Somerset, which is the size of a single door, is set to go under the hammer by 247 Property Auctions with a guide price of £109,000.
This is much cheaper than the average price of a home in the area which can set you back by £204,600. Despite its hidden exterior, the two-storey house is much more than first meets the eye, as it actually has a fair amount of room for a one-bed home.

The only real snag is that the Somerset house is sandwiched between two bigger houses, meaning buyers will need to be clever with how they use the space, reports The Mirror.
The cottage is laid out across two storeys. On the ground floor the front door opens into a large porch room, with leads onto a reasonable sized kitchen and living room with a wood stove.
Up on the first floor there is just one bedroom and a bathroom. The house also has a long passageway leading up to it, which the letting agent 247 Property Auctions calls "narrow but useful frontage". Scott Gray, owner of 247 Property Auctions and star of BBC programme Homes Under The Hammer, said the home had a "wealth of charm and character" and was a "deceptively Tardis-like property".
The advert for the house added: "The house, which is convenient for the towns varied range of amenities and facilities, is likely to appeal to the lettings, holiday lettings and developer fraternities."
