A TINY studio flat in one of London’s most exclusive postcodes has gone on the market – but the new owner must have a very good head for heights.

The property – one of eight self-contained studios currently available in Primrose Hill – will doubtless be in high demand.

However, restless sleepers who toss and turn before finally nodding off may want to skip a viewing altogether.

That’s because the bedroom of the little home can be found atop a mezzanine floor that can only be accessed by with a steep climb.

The alarming sleeping arrangement means the occupant must scale a builder’s ladder to get some shut-eye.

A trip and a fall on the way to the bathroom would bruise more than just the resident’s ego.

Photos from the property show a steep plunge to the floor of the living space.

The bizarre images show little care or attention has been paid to the set-up of the flat.

The mattress has been propped in an alcove above the wardrobe, meaning there’s no space for the owner to sit up in bed without hitting their head on the ceiling.

Despite the obvious design flaws, the block of eight rooms is on sale for a whopping £1.9million.

Agents say Chalk Farm Tube station is just 325 metres away, while Primrose Hill and Regents Park are also on the doorstep.

The entire property will be auctioned by Allsop on Thursday.

Those looking for a home in London on a budget will know exactly how difficult the challenge can be.

A studio flat in Clapham is going under the hammer for the dirt cheap price of £50,000.

But there’s a very good reason for that.

The tiny home is smaller than the average parking space. It’s so teeny there’s no room for appliances, and the current owner stashes the microwave under the bed.

Another miniature space in Ealing, west of the capital, is available for £875 a month.

It’s so small a single bed has been crammed into the kitchen.

Even those with more cash can feel short-changed by their options.

A three-bed family home is available for £1million, but plenty more money will need to be spent before the property is habitable.

The home in Kentish Town has been completely gutted, with floors stripped bare and paper peeling away from the walls.
