You could buy a private island for less than a house in London

If you're forever looking at property websites for something different, this might be for you.
Forget paying megabucks for a tiny house, when you could have your own private island instead.
It'll set you back $475,000 USD (£390,000) - in comparison, the average house in London is £537,920 ($648,000). Ouch!
Called Iguana Island, it is located just 12 miles off the coast of Bluefields, Nicaragua.
So what do you get for your money?
The island has five acres of land and boasts a house with three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The listing also says there is space to build a swimming pool and helipad if you so wish.
For a calm swim, they advise you to head towards the west side of the island near the dock.
Described as being 'built to meet modern standards', the house is painted yellow and turquoise.
Even better, it includes a bar.
If the sea views from your wraparound balcony aren't enough, there's also a 28-foot observation tower to give you a view of rainforests.
There is also accommodation for long-time staff members of the Island, and the listing says they are willing to carry on if new owners want them to.
Keen fishing fans will be thrilled to know you can catch snapper, mackerel, and barracuda from the island's dock. Tuna, billfish, and wahoo can all be caught just offshore.
There are direct flights to the US from Nicaragua's capital Managua, which is just another 45-minute plane journey to Bluefields.
It's then an easy boat ride to the island.
Who will buy it?
