No need to sleep on the couch! Tiny flat in ‘heart of Notting Hill’ with bunk bed in living room is available to rent for £1,842-a-month
A tiny studio flat in the ‘heart of Notting Hill’ which is so small the bed is in the living room is available to rent for £1,842 a month.
The apartment on Tavistock Road in London may appear grand on the outside – but inside could be considered a tight squeeze for some.
The studio flat is not much more than a Victorian room with high ceilings and a bunk bed above a bright blue, old-fashioned sofa.
As well as shelling out £1,842 each month for a room, you will also be expected to pay a £700 deposit.

The rest of the furnishings are painted white and are also old-fashioned. There is also a tiny kitchen partitioned off which is described as ‘modern’. Studio flats in this area are generally priced around £1,200 per month, according to Foxtons, so this property is priced considerably higher.
According to the listing on Rightmove, it was reduced in price on September 11.
The advert reads: ‘Boasting a fabulous location moments from the trendy bars and shops on Portobello Road, this fantastic studio flat boasts spacious accommodation, high ceilings and a modern kitchen.
‘Tavistock Road is located moments from the fashionable restaurants, shops and bars of Portobello Road, Westbourne Grove and Notting Hill Gate. Ladbroke Grove and Westbourne Park (Hammersmith & City Line) are the nearest underground stations.’

According to the rental index by Goodlord, London tenants will need a salary of at least £50,000 a year to rent without sharing.
Average prices rose by 7.98 per cent in London to £2,145 a month in August compared to July and by 13.95 per cent in the South East to £1,497 a month.
A £50,000 annual salary produces take-home pay after tax of around £3,169 a month.
Tenants need to be earning an annual salary of at least 30 times the monthly rent they intend to pay if they are a single occupant, estate agency Antony Roberts said.
