A ‘unique opportunity’: is this the weirdest RightMove listing ever?
Feedback is a little saddened to discover that a historic scientific building is up for sale, and wonders if any readers fancy opening a museum
A peculiar RightMove listing in Farnborough, England, has been deemed the strangest ever by the weekly column, Feedback. The property, for £750,000, is an upright white cylinder with additional sections on one side and boasts a built area of approximately 1000 square meters. The ground floor consists of around 10 rooms, with up to 20 on the upper floor, although the top floor contains only five rooms.
Formerly known as the Farnborough Centrifuge, the building was used to train pilots to endure high g-forces in aviation and space travel. Since closing in 2019 due to modernization, the centrifuge is now on the market as a unique opportunity to own a piece of British aviation history.
