This house in London might be narrower than a double bed, but it’s still got a hefty price tag.
The unusual property on Goldhawk Road in Shepherd’s Bush, West London, has doubled in value since it was last sold in 2009.
Despite being just 5ft 5in in parts, there are three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, living area, dining room, a bathroom and a shower room, across 1,034 sq ft.
The former hat shop, which is situated between a pizza restaurant and nail salon, is believed to be the narrowest in the captial.
It was once owned by fashion photographer Juergen Teller but was sold to its current owner 11 years ago for £595,000.
The building is now on the market for just under a million, with an asking price of £995,000.
As you enter the house, the ground floor stretches back with the reception room.
On the lower ground floor, there’s a 24ft long kitchen and then the dining area, which opens up into the garden.
Upstairs, on the first floor, there are two bedrooms, followed by a bathroom/dressing room and shower room on the second floor and a 6 ft wide master bedroom on the third floor, which has a built in bed to maximise the space.
Agent Simon Waller, who is handling the sale of the property, once attended a New Year’s Eve party in the house.
He told The Telegraph: ‘It was terribly bohemian – you could get lost in the different worlds over the five floors.
‘Each owner has sprinkled their own fairy dust on it. The current owner likens it to a classic car – she’s tinkering with it constantly.’
