The south east London flat is described as a 'duplex studio apartment' All this will be one lucky tenant's for an eye-watering £1,000-per-month Do YOU live in a bizzarely narrow flat? Email [email protected] 

A studio flat with the bed crammed into the landing and a minuscule 'lounge' area tucked under the staircase is available to rent - for an eyewatering £1,000 a month.

Advertised as a 'duplex' in south east London, its cramped upstairs area is just a narrow landing at the top of the staircase, with a bed pressed up against the balusters.

A modest-sized wardrobe offers the only visible clothing storage - meaning the new resident will likely need to scale back before moving in.

Meanwhile downstairs, tucked under the staircase are two small wooden chairs and a small table with shelves - both of which face the kitchen - which constitutes the 'lounge'.

There is also some much-needed additional storage from a tiny cupboard built into the bottom of the stairs.

The 'duplex' apartment in Catford, south east London, is in the right-hand side of the building pictured

Under the stairs there is some much needed extra storage, with barely enough room for a wardrobe in the 'bedroom'

This is all opposite a comparatively luxurious kitchen - which would perhaps be considered normal-sized elsewhere.

It boasts a few cabinets, a full-length fridge-freezer, an oven, a hob, a sink and a washing machine.

Not pictured, is the bathroom which sits opposite the bed at the top of the stairs, featuring a shower, toilet and sink.

Generously, this is separated from the bedroom by a wall to keep any steam or smells out - which cannot be said for the kitchen downstairs.

However, the floor plan shows no sign of a window in the bathroom, so anyone moving in might be wise to check for an effective extractor fan before committing.

The flat is on Crantock Road in Catford, just a short walk from Bellingham station.

The property, which is available with Acorn, is priced at between £1,000-£1,100 per-month and requires no deposit.

It is described as a 'duplex studio apartment' with an 'open plan kitchen/lounge', 'upstairs bedroom' and 'neutrally decorated throughout'.

An 'en suite' bathroom is located opposite the bedroom, featuring a shower, toiled and basin

Judging from the floorplan, the bathroom has no window. so anyone moving in might be wise to check for an effective extractor fan before committing

The studio comes unfurnished and the landlord is looking for a long-term let - though details including the minimum tenancy allowed, council tax amount, and, crucially, the size of the property are omitted.

The listing reads: 'Beautifully set on one of Catford's most prestigious roads, Crantock Road, is this incredibly well-presented studio apartment, which is ready to move into right away.

'And is located near bus routes, shops, and stations, providing superb connections into Central London and the City of London.

'The accommodation comprises an open plan kitchen/diner, modern in its design, an upstairs bedroom, and an en suite shower room.'
