THIS historic £300,000 home boasts its own mystery feature that many could see as the perfect escape.
Located in Fowlmere, Cambridgeshire this four bedroom cottage has one bathroom and 1,356 square feet of living space.
It also claims a chalk-etched tunnel used as a hiding place during the reign of Henry VIII.
The Grade II-listed cottage was built over the secret passage, which links up with several historic properties in the village.
It's said to play host to a small central meeting room, too.

The tunnel was likely built when Henry VIII created the Church of England, vendors say.
It's thought to have been used by Catholics as an escape route from persecution during this time.
This could be the last remaining access point to the tunnel, with others having been sealed off.
The passage stretches for 100 feet and its only access point is through a trap door in the cellar of the four-bedroom house.
According to historical records, the tunnel, which is 5 foot 9 inches at its deepest and just under a yard at its narrowest points, extends under the road towards Fowlmere's war memorial.
There it changes direction towards the Old Manor House on the other side of the High Street.
The house has been Grade II-listed since the 1960s by Historic England, which cites that "from the cellar a tunnel cut into the natural chalk leads to the Old Manor House".
The listing agent highlighted the benefits of the area.
The listing reads: “If you are looking for a village location and to be part of a community then you won't find a better village to live in than Fowlmere.
“Fowlmere is one of the most southernmost villages in Cambridgeshire and on the edge of Hertfordshire.

"As well as being within easy reach of all the amenities of a town and city you are also surrounded by beautiful countryside, a perfect combination.
“Within the village itself you have a number of village groups, a village hall with tennis courts, several village greens and playgrounds, a fantastic village pub and restaurant 'The Chequers', village church, playgroup, private nursery and primary school.

It comes as a creepy cottage has gone up for sale for the first time in two centuries - but there's a skin-crawling catch.
The three-bedroom detached 17th-century home in Kidderminster is up for grabs for £825,000.
Meanwhile, plenty of bizarre flats hit the property market up and down the country.
A property available to rent for £175 per week in South London divided opinion after viewers notice a strange layout.
There was a bed above its kitchen cupboards - while it might create bedlam for some - it could be midnight snack perfect for others.
Meanwhile, residents in Glasgow were puzzled after a strange flat was spotted in the west end.
The image shows an extra room jutting out of the first floor into the garden, only supported by two beams.
There is no ground floor room beneath the extension.
Plus, a Manhattan-style flat with an odd feature in the bedroom sparked controversy when it went on the market for £230,000.
At first everything about the flashy flat seemed normal, but something unusual appears to be suspended in the corner.
