HOUSE-HUNTERS have been left stunned by a near-£4m mansion on sale with a very unique feature – an entire jet in the back garden.
The six-bedroom mansion in Petersfield, Hampshire, hit the market on Rightmove last Friday, where it is listed for an eye-watering £3.95m.
Boasting a host of stunning features including a pond, more than 10 acres of grounds and an entire guest house, Durford Edge looks a lucrative deal for those with deep pockets.
However, despite its countless selling points, the biggest talking point for those on the hunt is undoubtedly the Harrier jump jet parked slap-bang in the middle of the north lawn.
Viewers rushed to social media to give their thoughts on the ornament.
One person wrote: "Wherever they moved to they obvsiously (sadly for them) didn't have a room at the new pad for their very cool jet."

Another added: "Darling, just bought a garden ornament off eBay… If it gets delivered while I'm out, ask them to put it on the south lawn."
The listing for the home reads: “Located on the prestigious Durford Wood Estate, this stunning home and extensive gardens were designed by Inigo Triggs and Gertrude Jekyll in 1923 – one of the most important British Landscape Designers of the 20th century.
“Durford Edge, along with The Hollow, has been sympathetically refurbished throughout by the current owners with the emphasis on light and space.
“The house retains many of its original ideas and features and has been thoughtfully designed with the principal rooms at the rear of the property, maximizing its wonderful position and far reaching views.”
