A legendary red telephone box has gone up for sale in London - and it might just be the capital's most affordable property. The Grade II-listed structure, situated in Winchmore Hill, north London, is being offered for £10,000.
Estate agents Strettons suggest the building could serve advertising purposes, or be transformed into various enterprises such as a café or art space. The auction house is simultaneously offering four telephone boxes for a collective £28,000 in central Enfield, north London.
