Fat Buyers Need Not Apply

A London home (in dark paint) which is just 5-feet 5-inches wide in places has gone on the market for $945,315 (525,000 pounds). It emerged Tuesday Aug. 30, 2005. The property measures 9ft 11ins at its widest point and is described by the property agent as "utterly amazing". The bathroom is so tiny that it only contains the bath and a bedroom has a built-in bed to save space.

Wow. I guess this is an incentive to stay thin. You really could get stuck in a house like this even being slightly overweight. I think I'd get a little clostrophobic in something like this.
