A tiny home narrower than a Tube carriage has gone on sale in the capital with a £1million price tag.
The four-bedroom property in Battersea, south-west London, stands at just 7ft 7in wide, giving any potential new owner a headache when moving furniture inside.
The measurement is slimmer than a 2009 Stock Tube carriage, which has a width of 8ft 7in.
But estate agents say interest in the "exceptional" property, which is set over three floors, has already been registered since it went on the market earlier this week.

Known as "The Slim House", the home has featured in a number of TV property shows such as George Clarke's Amazing Spaces on Channel 4.
Extensive alterations carried out in 2013 added a room to each floor to bring the total floor space to 1,058 sq ft.
The home consists of two reception rooms on the ground floor with a kitchen breakfast room leading to a 48ft garden.
Two bedrooms, a shower room and a dressing room are situated on the first floor.

And a further two bedrooms and bathroom can be found on the second floor with a loft above.
The current owner is Aimee Luther, an advertising executive, who paid £837,500 for it in 2014.
She said: “This house has a slice of everything but on a slightly slimmer scale.
"I have loved living in a fabulous part of SW11 in the heart of a friendly neighbourhood and I’ve no doubt that the next owner will have equal pride in owning this piece of architectural brilliance.”

Jasper Colliver, head of the Wandsworth branch of agent Savills, which is handling the sale, said: “Its unique proportions make The Slim House a really rare find and one of just a handful in London.”
The slim property is one of several across London that have gone on sale at eye-watering prices.
Last February, a house less than nine feet wide in Chelsea , west London, went on sale at £600,000 - almost three times the UK average.
