A tiny London house which is the width of a king size mattress has gone on the market for £150,000. The three-storey house on Exmouth Road in Walthamstow appears to have been squeezed in between existing terraced houses. At its thinnest point – in the kitchen – the house is just 1.68m or 5.5 feet in width, which is the length of a wooden bench that can seat three people.
