Size isn't everything: Tiny two-storey house that is just 13ft wide goes on the market for £75,000
  • The house in Bridgwater, Somerset, was converted from a garage
  • It boasts own courtyard and combined dining/kitchen and sitting room
  • Estate agents say people have travelled more than 150 miles for a viewing
At just 13ft wide, this tiny house may be one of the smallest in Britain.

Spread over two floors, the detached property features all the mod cons needed for comfortable living but most definitely suits a single owner.

The house in Bridgwater, Somerset, has gone on the market for the not so tiny price tag of £74,950 and despite being on the small side viewers have travelled more than 150 miles to take a look.

The house I lived in in Florida was probably as small as that, but then it cost about a quarter as much!

Maybe not so much the house that's worth that much but where it's located.

It's worth what someone will pay for it. No more, no less.

They are making homes that are worth in the 30,000 dollar range out of shipping containers.
