"A studio flat up for rent in north London is the tiniest apartment the agents letting it have seen. Measuring just 87 sq ft (eight square metres), it is so small that the only way to get into the wall-mounted bed is to stand on top of the fridge and climb up a ladder."

"... Of course, while this particular studio is exceptionally tiny, it is certainly not the only rental accommodation in London that could be classed as small.

"But with rents in the capital rising by nearly 10% in the past year alone, there's a new twist on the familiar story of tenants struggling and landlords cashing in. The size of rental properties in the capital, it seems, is starting to shrink."
