A tiny studio flat so small it has a raised bed that can be accessed only by a ladder has gone on the rental market for £1,250 a month.

The pokey home, in Kensington, west London, has no room for a living area, sofa or even a television, and is kitted out with a tiny table with one chair underneath the sleeping area.

The room does have a kitchen – but is so close to the bed frame that the cooker appears hard to access.

The ladder up to the bed only leaves just enough space for the fridge door to be opened.

The property, that would requires a £1,442.30 deposit, is only suitable for one person to live in.

It is described for prospective tenants as a ‘double high sleeper bed’, with half of the floor space located under the raised bed, with a little head space available.

The small studio in the upmarket part of the capital does, however, boast of a separate shower and toilet.

It does come ‘furnished’ according to OpenRent who is putting up the property for lease.

Small living spaces in London, however, are just as in demand as huge homes in the capital.

Last January, a tiny one-bed flat went on the market for the ‘mad’ price of £430,000 – despite being so small it looks like a shed.

In 2019, a 9.1 sq metre flat in Hackney, east London, sold for about £200,000 and a year later, a 7.3sq metre studio in Kensington and Chelsea also sold for about £200,000.
