London landlord seeks three people to rent small bedsit

Three in a bed? Cramped studio flat with just one double bed and a small kitchenette goes on the rental market for £1,000 a month – with up to three tenants allowed

• The Cricklewood bedsit features an elevated double bed on a custom frame
• The listing said the landlord is willing to rent the property to 3 people maximum

A London landlord is looking for three tenants to pay £1,000-a-month to rent a bedsit with a double mattress suspended two metres above the floor by a wooden frame. 

The bed, which has limited headroom due to the ceiling, is accessed by a wooden step ladder which is attached to the end of the elevated frame at the top and the skirting board at the base. 

Underneath the bed structure is a wardrobe with two drawers and a travelling chest in the style of those embarking upon a 19th century grand tour. 

Unfortunately for the three people seeking to rent this property, which is in Cricklewood, north west London, the dining table is only large enough to seat two, which is probably sufficient as the most audacious dish they can possibly cook in the adjacent kitchenette is chicken-a-la-ding from the microwave. 

The bedsit in Cricklewood, north west London features an elevated double bed suspended above the floor by a bespoke wooden frame sitting on galvanised steel brackets which have been bolted to the wall 

There is a small galley-style kitchen in the flat, including a microwave and fridge 

In the bathroom, a toilet sits at the end of a small corridor, flanked by an incredibly narrow hand basin and a shower stall. 

According to the listing on OpenRent, letting agency Key Haven Estates said the property is ‘furnished’. 

The listing reads: ‘We are proud to offer this delightful one bedroom, one bathroom studio flat in a great location.

‘This property benefits from available parking, and garden access.’

They suggest ‘viewing is highly recommended’ and that the property is ‘furnished’. 

The new residents will have the benefit of this bathroom, which has the toilet, shower and hand basin packed tightly together 

A deposit of £1,000 is also required before tenants can move in.

Despite its size, the maximum number of tenants is listed as ‘three’ and families are ‘allowed.’

The listing suggests there is access to a garden and there is parking.

The new tenants will have to pay their own bills and pets, unfortunately, are not allowed.
