A 98 inch-wide triangle-shaped property transformed into a two bedroom house has been put up for rent – for £36,000 per year. The ‘Wee House’ in Clerkenwell, London, was originally used as a cycle courier depot, and was renovated by its current owner adding a roof extension and converting the basement. The two-bedroom house measures just 98 inches across at its widest point. It boasts crisp modern decor, having been recently renovated. The Wee House is ‘George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces’ meets ‘Grand Designs’ in the heart of hip Clerkenwell

The current owner set out to create a more practical living space As a result, it was transformed into a two bedroom, two bathroom, two reception room home. Joe Wright, the architect behind the project, said: “It’s only 2.5-metres across at the front and landlocked at the back, so it was very tricky to get access. “Planning was difficult because it is in a conservation area and the work at the back was done by builders on abseils. “It is basically one room per floor and a staircase so we had to make them work hard.
