Would you live in one of the narrowest houses in the UK?

“We had a very good builder who was up to the challenge and we were very happy with the result.” The Wee House is on Laystall Street, just a short walk away from Farringdon train station. Work on the property was completed at the end of 2016 and it has now been put on the rental market with Dexters for £700 per week. This works out at £3,033 per calendar month and an annual bill of more than £36,000 – around the same as the average Londoner’s salary.

Somehow the architects found space for two shower rooms in the house But this is around the going rate for a two-bedroom house in Clerkenwell. Chris Dowds, Dexters Clerkenwell lettings director, said: “The Wee House is fairly unusual even for Clerkenwell. “It is slightly smaller than most two bedrooms that rent for its asking price. “However, it offers that little bit of something special, which is of high importance to the creative minds of Clerkenwell dwellers.”
