10 of the Narrowest Houses in the World

The site Web Urbanist posted a rather not-so-exhaustive list of the top 10 narrowest houses known to man. Below is an especially cramped London flat. And here I thought I wanted to retire to England…

This London, England house (left above) is just 5 feet at its narrowest, and 10 feet at its widest, and was sold for nearly a million dollars. Likewise extreme expensive, 72 1/2 Bedford Street in Greenwich Village, New York City, USA (right above), which has been everything from a cobbler’s shop to a candy factory, dates back to 1873. However, the actual narrowest house in the United States is located in Long Beach, California.
