A compact apartment with the unconventional feature of a kitchen bed has become available for rent at £1,200 per month, and it comes with an external shower – though “hot water” is included.
This high-priced rental property offers a double bed positioned in the corner of the room, which, surprisingly, occupies most of the living space.
Situated in Tuffnell Park, Crayford, London, the studio boasts a small kitchen area located just inches away from the mattress. The kitchen includes a sink, oven, and microwave, but space limitations seem to exclude a full-size refrigerator.
For those who prefer not to dine in bed, a small table is squeezed between the mattress and kitchen sink, with room for only one chair.
The flat’s tight layout results in a wardrobe and set of drawers blocking the entrance to the front door.
A separate “private” bathroom is provided, but tenants must exit the studio and walk down a corridor to access the shower.
Without space for a washing machine, residents will need to use a communal laundry room for their laundry needs.
Despite the steep monthly rent of £1,200, the cost includes heating and hot water expenses.
The listing on OpenRent states: “We are delighted to present this furnished ground floor studio with its own private shower on Crayford Road, Tufnell Park – priced at £1200pm.
