An island that comes with its own cottage and lighthouse has hit the market – and it could be yours for just £312,000 ($400,000). But househunters have been left confused by the property’s online listing, as it doesn’t seem to include a bathroom or any form of plumbing.

A homeowner stopped by to check on his suburban Atlanta property — only to be arrested for trespassing.
