A flat in wealthy West London is on the market for just £500 a month – and you can almost shower from the bed.
The studio flat in Hammersmith is so small the front door cannot open fully as there is a shower hidden behind it.
The property has everything you could need just a small step away and an electric hob is placed next to where you would lay your head to rest – making it an ideal flat for anyone who likes to nap and cook at the same time.

Alongside the shower and oven, there is a single bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers, small dining table and two chairs.
The efficiently-used space also has a built-in hob, stainless steel sink and a fridge freezer.
Although there is no toilet in the room, a shared toilet is available in the large Victorian house on Lena Gardens.

Residents are having to make increasing sacrifices to live in some Hammersmith neighbourhoods.
Research from Benham and Reeves earlier this year house prices in the borough 15 per cent making property in the area £100,000 more expensive.
Since then Hammersmith and Fulham Council has committed to spending £32million to build more affordable homes.
The council has promised 394 new homes for local residents as part of plans to build 1,800 homes over the next 10 years.

“Local people must have the chance to stay in Hammersmith and Fulham and we’re doing everything we can to provide safe, comfortable and secure homes for the next generation.
“Since Covid hit, we have injected over £90m of funding, along with business rate relief of £134m, into our local businesses and high streets.
