tiny west London bedsit without a private toilet is up for rent for £1,240 per month — and is described on the listing as “suitable for a couple”.
The Bayswater property features a dining space wedged beneath a bunk bed, a pair of wardrobes, a corner kitchen and a built-in shower.
But it appears to lack comfortable seating and relies on access to communal toilets dotted around the large residential complex opposite Cleveland Square.
Glissen Management said the ground-floor Bayswater property is of good size and in an ideal location.
A spokesperson for the lettings company, who didn’t want to be named, said they expect interest from professionals looking to make it their permanent home.
All mod cons: the property has an integrated oven, a standalone fridge and a built-in shower
/ Zoopla / Glissen ManagementMonthly rent includes all utility bills and council tax, they added, and the property is “a good size by London standards”.
“It has high ceilings and massive windows so there is a good deal of light and space, and the tenants will have their own shower and kitchen.
“There are six toilets on the ground floor and they are all going to be redone. It is somewhere between a studio and a house share — but you have no cleaning up of others’ mess.”
The agent said it is selective about tenants to maintain the right living environment within the building. “We look for professionals, we don’t want party animals.”
Featuring a double bunk bed, twin wardrobes and two chairs, the apartment is “suitable for a couple” — although most likely to go to an individual — they added.

But the agent said it was more likely to go to “working people looking to use it as their permanent home”.
However, they conceded that enquiries had so far been slow — and the property was reduced in price last week.
Properties in Bayswater sold for an average of £1.4 million in the last year, according to Rightmove. A three-bed flat on Cleveland Square sold for £630,000 last summer.
Renting an average room now costs £1,000 or more in almost a third of London postcodes, it emerged this month.
