A TINY studio flat gives new meaning to the phrase, “if you want breakfast in bed, sleep in the kitchen”.
The Salford flat advertised on Rightmove for £750 pcm has sent house hunters into a frenzy over peculiar set-up.

According to the advert, it is “the perfect property for a professional individual looking to live in a vibrant area”.
The apartment is in Salford, Greater Manchester, where most other studio flats go for more than £1000pcm.
But there is one catch – what the online listing called an “open-plan living room” is in fact a bed in the middle of the kitchen.
The description does not mention the odd sleeping arrangement, only that “the modern kitchen is equipped with a range of appliances”.
The listing said: “This outstanding property boasts a prime location, stylish furnishings and all the necessary conveniences for modern living.”
Online house-hunters have been left confused by the nature of the “modern kitchen”.
One user joked that the apartment would be well-suited to breakfast in bed and wrote: “I thought it must be London at first. Brings a whole new meaning to ‘breakfast in bed’”.
Another wrote: “My horse has a bigger stable than this, the rent is utter lunacy.”
Others users were concerned noise from the fridge freezer may lead to a disturbed sleep for the tenant.
“A lovely peaceful night’s sleep being serenaded by the Arctic wind impressions by the fridge/freezer,” said one post.
Another comment suggested the tenant would be able to perform all their household chores from the comfort of their own bed.
They said: “Love the description, as you enter the flat you will discover an open plan living space.
“What you mean is as you open your door you are greeted by a 6ft x 6ft room where you can do the washing, cooking and cleaning up all from the comfort of your bed.
“And the best part is there’s so little floor space you’ll only need a dust buster to hoover the carpet.”
If the renter desires more open space, the studio is “surrounded by nearby parks”.
The estate agents, Happy Homes UK Ltd., said: “Don’t miss our on the opportunity to make this studio your ideal home.”
East Manchester letting agents Happy Homes have been contacted for comment.
This small but mighty home in east London is also ideal for those looking for a cosy option.
