Its width is 1.5 meters ... the narrowest house in London for sale at one million euros
The narrowest house in London (1.7 meters wide) has been put up for sale for more than a million euros and is located between a hairdressing salon and a doctor's office.
This intriguing five-story building in Shepherds Bush was originally a Victorian hat shop with warehouses for storing merchandise and lodgings on the upper floors.
In a nod to its past, the house has kept a small window decorated with a pillbox-shaped lamp.
This wondrous property, which has a blue façade and is barely noticeable, is estimated to be worth 950,000 pounds (1.1 million euros).
For David Myers, director of sales for the agency responsible for selling this building, this price is explained by the fact that the house, which was built at the end of the nineteenth century or the beginning of the twentieth century, constitutes a "unique part" of London's history.
"It's part of the magic of London," he told AFP.
Room dimensions vary greatly from corner to corner.
And if the kitchen downstairs is narrower, it leads to a dining area twice the size of the kitchen.
A garden 2.5 meters wide is located behind glass windows.
On the first floor, in addition to a bedroom and an office, there is a balcony providing a stunning view of the rooftops and chimneys of West London.
On the second floor, there is a bathroom and shower room, and on the third floor the master bedroom that is accessed through a hole in the floor to make use of the space.
For David Myers, this home fits "a young couple or one person".
Thanks to its "unique" features in terms of its history of construction and the eclectic innovations of the interior, the house can, according to him, attract "art-loving" or "bohemian" buyers.
“There is no other house in London that is 1.7 meters wide,” Myers said.
There are other five-storey houses, but no house is distinguished by this unique space, ”adding that“ all the previous owners left their own stamp on it. ”
