£1,700-a-month London flat so small you need steps to get into bed

How’s this for a rung on the property ladder? £1,700-a-month London flat is so small you need to climb wooden steps to get into tiny bed

  • The ‘fully furnished’ sleeping area is a double mattress set directly onto the floor
  • To live in the ‘modern studio’ for a year would set you back £20,544

A one-bedroom flat is up for £1,712 a month but the home is so small you have to climb a wood ladder just to reach the bed.

The central London studio, located on Penywern Road, has a ‘mezzanine sleeping area’ – but the second floor is accessed by a ladder and appears to have too low a ceiling to stand up in.

The ‘fully furnished’ sleeping area is a double mattress set directly onto the floor – with a double plug high above your head and a light switch just below.

The only way to access the ‘double debroom’ by a ladder up to the small mezzanine.

The flat is advertised as being close to Imperial College – suggesting students would be perfect for the flat despite it costing £20,544 a year.
