The thinnest house

To rent a house in London is becoming unachievable for most of the population. Nowadays, tenants cannot afford to rent a room and they are being forced to share them, sometimes with complete strangers.

The price is completely unaffordable in areas like Chelsea, Belgravia, South Kensington or Knightbridge. Specifically in this last district, in the number 5 at the junction of South Terrace and Thurloe Square, there is a property estimated to be worth over two million pounds.

It is not extremely expensive compared with other residences in the capital but this house is one of the thinnest apartments in the UK. The building is measuring just one meter at its narrowest point and 10 meters at its widest side. The property is actually triangular but looks rectangular due an optical illusion.
