A beach hut that was described by a luxury lifestyle magazine as 'too lush for words ' has gone on sale for £1.25million , despite attracting bitter complaints from local residents . The property , which is located in Coldingham Bay in the Scottish Borders comes with four double bedrooms with sea views and terraces , an entrance hallway and open plan kitchen , dining and living area with sliding doors . Since it was constructed it has received praise from fans of modern architecture , with Luxe magazine calling it 'too lush for words ' in a July review . Scroll down for video . Picturesque : The beach hut sits on top of a hill in Coldingham Bay , in the Scottish Borders , and has four double bedrooms all with sea views . Stunning : The property has an open-plan dining , living and kitchen space with doors that open out on to a balcony overlooking the Noth Sea . Controversial : The home was described by luxury lifestyle magazine Luxe as 'too lush for words ' , but has caused fury among locals who say it is out of character with other beach huts , some of which are 100 years old . Luxury : Each of the four bedrooms has its own terrace , and the property sits in landscaped gardens which extend up and down the hill . However , as the property was built on the site of an old wooden beach hut , and is surrounded by other wooden huts some of which are 100 years old , it has attracted the ire of locals who say it is 'out of keeping ' with the area . One Tripadvisor review of the area by Sandra L reads : 'This lovely spot is overlooked by an absolute monstrosity of a building - a carbuncle is the only suitable description . 'How this ever got planning permission is a mystery ! My memory is of the chalet belonging to the Haven , a wooden building with a corrugated iron roof . I know we must move with the times , but I think this building is a big mistake and spoils the whole beach area . ' However , spokesperson for property management company Sanderson Young , who are dealing with all enquiries called the property ‘ one of the most unique , rare and impressive beach houses available within the United Kingdom ’ . The home is set into landscaped grounds which extend up and down the hillside . The property can also be rented out for £3,000 for seven nights during peak holiday season . Pricey : According to the estate agents handling the sale , at peak season the owners of this house could collect £3,000 per week in rent . Problems : One Tripadvisor review of the bay brands the property a 'carbuncle ' , adding : 'How this ever got planning permission is a mystery ' Anger : The building used to be on the site of an old wooden hut that served as accommodation for staff at a nearby Haven hotel . Holiday rental website coastalretreats.co.uk still have the property advertised to rent and describe it as : 'An extraordinary piece of landmark architecture using glass , steel , welsh slate and iroko wood in a stunning location ' . A local business owner added : 'Just generally I hear that most people don ’ t like it . It ’ s totally different to everything else in the bay . A lot of tourists come in and say they don ’ t like it but there are a small group who say it ’ s stunning . 'It used to be an old wooden hut , I believe it was the living quarters for the maids at the Haven hotel . Now it ’ s an invasive piece of modern architecture . ' I believe that a gentleman owns it and it is on the market , though I ’ m not sure if it was built to sell or to let . It sits empty for much of the time but every now and then guests do come to stay . ' Fury : Sandra L left this review of the bay on Tripadvisor with a three star rating , the lowest rating the location has ever received , saying the property 'spoils the whole beach area ' Complaints : Others have protested the new addition to the sea front by saying it is out of keeping with the other buildings .
