It may look like a small, poky and somewhat dingy flat above a Co-op. But this property proves looks can be deceptive, as it boasts three bedrooms, a jacuzzi and a garden that backs onto a private meadow. Situated in Rainford village, in St Helens, the house is on the market for £225,000 and has been described as 'the perfect home for an executive couple or young family'. Inside, there is a dining room, lounge and kitchen area, master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, second bedroom and a loft conversion that doubles up as a third room.
ISIS sniper team silenced by direct hit from a single Paveway bomb: RAF takes out terrorists firing on Iraqi troops near Ramadi as 150 British troops fly out to wage war in Syria which is set to last three years
Four Tornado GR4 jets set out overnight from RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, with two carrying out reconnaissance in Syria and two providing air support for the Iraqi army. The Ministry of Defence revealed that when a 'terrorist sniper team' began firing on Britain's allies, they were 'silenced by a direct hit' from a 500lb laser-guided bomb dropped by one of the Tornados. The RAF has transported 150 military personnel and eight additional bomber jets to Cyprus in preparation for further airstrikes within Syria, following the first raids yesterday which saw seven Paveway bombs dropped on ISIS territory.

Man accused of 'sorcery' is paraded in front of a baying crowd including children before being decapitated... then left in the street with his head on display in latest sickening ISIS execution
Photographs of the brutal execution of the man in Nineveh, in Iraq, who is accused of 'sorcery' have emerged. In one image the man's head is placed on his body in a street following the beheading. The accused - dressed in blue overalls - is pictured on his knees with a blindfold on as a man from the terror group stands next to him with a huge rusty sword (left). One man speaks through a microphone as he reads out the charge to the crowd of people (right).
Benn hit by Left's poison: After electric Syria speech, a 'repulsive' backlash from the hardliners - and there's no prizes for guessing which member of the family is Corbyn's favourite
The Scottish National Party's Alex Salmond sparked fury for claiming socialist firebrand Tony Benn (left) would be 'birling in his grave' after his son Hilary (right) delivered a passionate speech in favour of military action. Mr Benn, the shadow foreign secretary, was cheered and applauded in Parliament after demolishing his own leader's arguments against military action, declaring: 'We never have and never should walk by on the other side of the road.' While supporters used social media to hail Mr Benn as a 'future PM in waiting', he faced an onslaught of online trolls who claimed he had 'betrayed' the memory of his socialist father Tony and was 'making a pitch for leader of the Labour party on the bones of the Syrian people'. It is understood Mr Benn has not spoken to Jeremy Corbyn since his barnstorming pro-airstrikes speech electrified the Labour party and led to calls for him to take over as leader.

The family of San Bernardino gunman Syed Farook told FBI investigators that he was teased by colleagues about his long Islamic beard after it emerged that he clashed with a Jewish co-worker over religion weeks before the mass shooting. As the motive for the massacre remains unknown, lawyers for the Farook family said the only possible trigger for his murderous rampage to emerge so far was a series of disparaging comments about his traditional Muslim appearance. However, they said the slain health inspector had 'brushed off' the remarks and they remained at a loss to explain why he mercilessly gunned down 14 people, the majority his former co-workers, on Wednesday.
Socialite who was allowed to die at 50 because she didn't want to grow old and ugly was diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder and had a full-length mirror installed at her favourite restaurant
The mother-of-three, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, was at the centre of a Court of Protection case after she refused treatment for her severely-damaged kidneys because she did not want to 'live in a council flat, be poor or be ugly'. A psychological report into her case which emerged today revealed she had 'no ability to place herself in her daughter's shoes... or to weigh the impact on them of her suicide'. The socialite, whose death was announced earlier this week, was married four times and was 'hopeless' with money after tasting the high life while working with wealthy families.
Sour grapes, Nigel? As Jeremy Corbyn celebrates Labour winning Oldham West by-election with 62% of the vote, Ukip leader is mocked for claiming the vote was 'bent'
At the end of a torrid week for a Labour party divided over airstrikes in Syria, Jeremy Corbyn's party took 62 per cent of the vote in Oldham West - a surprise increase on the 54.8 per cent secured in May's general election. Mr Farage - who had high hopes of wiping out Labour's 15,000 majority - was accused of 'crying over spilt milk' after claiming the result was 'bent'. Mr Corbyn today visited Oldham and was pictured hugging Labour's newest MP Jim McMahon as he said the result shows 'just how strong, how deep-rooted and how broad our party, the Labour Party, is for the whole of Britain'.

Mother-of-three Jessica Gerrard (right) grabbed the Pomeranian dog (left) after Zsuzsanna Szilagyi refused her £300 offer, Liverpool Crown Court heard. Gerrard, 24, then handed the pup to Adam Conway, who was sitting in a waiting car with their baby and they drove off with Miss Svilagyi's hand still trapped in the car door, dragging her into the road.

Lucy Bethany Blackburn, 20 (pictured), from Hapton, near Burnley, Lancashire, was found in the ladies toilets at Warrington Hospital (inset) in Cheshire after suffering a suspected epileptic fit during a work experience placement. In a poignant message sent to friends via Snapchat just hours before she died, the student nurse posted a picture of her feet with the message: 'Only two hours left'.
Soon after, her shocked colleagues found her collapsed and raised the alarm but attempts to revive her failed. Her mother Susan Thorley, 44, has now paid tribute to her 'kind-hearted Facebook queen' daughter as she gathered with friends and family to mourn her loss.
