A flat for rent on Fallsbrook Road in Furzedown, south west London, has gained attention online due to its unconventional layout. The property, a one-bedroom maisonette, appears spacious and light-filled. However, its design includes a unique feature where the garden is only accessible through the bathroom. Prospective renters will need to walk past the bathtub to reach the patio.
The layout reveals an open-plan kitchen and dining area adjacent to a bathroom through which the garden is accessed. The toilet is placed in a separate room, leading some to question the practicality of the design, particularly the distance between the toilet and the nearest sink.
Social media responses have labeled the layout "bonkers," with comments focusing on the inconvenience of having to walk through the bathroom to get outside. The remainder of the flat includes a double bedroom and a living area featuring a black and red fireplace. The outdoor space offers a pleasant setup with a small dining area, privacy bushes, and room for a grill.
The flat will be available for rent starting June 24th at a cost of £1,650 per month, with a deposit of £1,903.
