A tiny London house which is the width of a king size mattress has gone on the market for £150,000.
The three-storey house on Exmouth Road in Walthamstow, in the north-east of the capital, appears to have been squeezed in between existing terraced houses.
At its thinnest point – in the kitchen – the house is just 1.68m or 5.5 feet in width, which is the length of a wooden bench that can seat three people.
However, it has a more substantial length of 6.71m or 22ft, making it long and narrow.
The minuscule house, which measures 1.95m in width inside, has a wooden exterior and is very sparsely decorated inside.
Meanwhile, the kitchen features pieces of plywood scattered across the room, suggesting that it is still under construction.
Those interested in purchasing the house would need to pay offers upwards of £150,000 in cash only, as requested by the seller.
The photos have since been shared online, with one TikTok user dubbing it ‘an alleyway with a roof’.

The freehold property also comes with its own small leafy garden at the rear which also has a tree, which appears to be a silver birch.
There is currently a downstairs living area, kitchen and bathroom, and a further two living spaces on the other floors.
The quirky property has a bathroom with a tiny white-tiled shower unit and a toilet in close proximity and there doesn’t appear to be enough room for a sink, as it is the smallest room in the house.
The kitchen is the skinniest part of the dwelling, measuring just 1.68m by 7.27m, or 5.5 feet by 23.10 feet.
One of the rooms currently has shelving taking up a lot of room, which could be removed to maximise the limited space.
The east London property has a ground floor room, a room on the first floor and another room on the top floor, meaning you could technically transform it into two bedroom house with a lounge.
It is currently being used as a workshop and commercial premises but offers ‘huge potential for redevelopment’ including as a’ residential conversion’, according to the advertisement.
It also suggests that the building has the potential to be transformed into multiple flats.
