You Can Rent A Luxury 'Shed' In London For £1,500 Per Month

A landlord in London has put a shed up for rent for £1,500 ($1,958) a month.

'One and a half grand a month! That's a disgrace!' I hear you cry. But before you smash your phone/laptop/tablet on the ground in pure disgust, you may wanna read on - because this ain't any old shed. In fact, despite appearances, it isn't really a shed at all.

It is in fact advertised as a 'Gorgeous Designer Self Contained Log Cabin' - although clearly, from the outside, it looks quite a lot like a shed. It's a pretty small wooden house at the end of a garden; that's a shed, isn't it?

But take a look inside and you'll see it isn't full of spiders, trowels and dead bodies like most sheds; rather, it has three bedrooms, a mini kitchen and a shower.

Whatever it is, it's located in Muswell Hill in the north of the capital and it has been newly refurbished, boasting a swanky interior complete with a telly, Wi-Fi and underfloor heating, as well as a nice little terrace out the front.

A description of the shed/Gorgeous Designer Self Contained Log Cabin reads: "Gorgeous designer self-contained newly refurbished log cabin, designed by a fashion designer.

"In a quiet large well-kept garden. Charming night lighting and own entrance. Wooden flooring and underfloor heating throughout.

"Fabulous design mini kitchen (sink, fridge, freezer, washing machine, mini oven, hob, kettle and toaster).

"Stylish new shower room with wood effect tiles."

Now, you might reckon one and a half grand a month is pretty steep, but when you consider it somehow has three rooms in it - and one is a double - that means the rent could be split four ways.

That's cheap for the big smoke, and that covers all bills too. Plus you'd get to tell all your mates you live in a Gorgeous Designer Self Contained Log Cabin/shed, rather than your run of the mill, damp, rat-infested shoe box flat.

It could be perfect for a couple who have two friends with whom they get on extremely well; maybe like Chandler, Monica, Joey and Phoebe? Or perhaps just some swingers?

But before you snap up the place, all you Chandlers, Monicas, Joeys, Phoebes and swingers out there, where the hell is the toilet??

You may wanna investigate that before you move into the shed of your dreams. You can see the advert here.
