The house in Haywards Heath, West Sussex, features three double bedrooms, a south-facing rear garden and off-road parking for two cars.
But when prospective house buyers press the 'open map' feature on Rightmove, they are greeted with a Google Streetview image of two police officers holding guns outside the house.
And just a few yards down the road - which several police cars are parked along - a group of people are seen standing with officers by an ambulance.
Around the corner, a smashed-up white van can be seen as an officer stands nearby.
Amazed property hunters took to Twitter to marvel at the bizarre sight - with some sarcastically listing an 'armed police presence' along with other desirable property qualities.

The images were taken when police attended a street fight on April 30, 2019, which erupted when two vehicles crashed.
Groups from each van began fighting - with one person left with a broken arm.
After the incident, Mark Brazil, 40, admitted one charge of possession of an offensive weapon and was sentenced to a six-month suspended sentence, BBC News reports.

A 12-month referral order was given to a 17-year-old - who cannot be named due to his age - after he admitted to possession of an article with a blade or point. Amazed Rightmove viewers took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the Street View find.
