I’m almost positive that I saw this house while I was in London last year. My sister snapped a photo. I’ll have to find it.

My thoughts exactly. And if you look at the sidewalk, it also changes along the same line. I have to call fake on the Google Sightseeing photos at the very least. No way is that real.

I actually think it’s pretty cool. New houses in America are often bigger than they need to be. This is perfect. (Yes, I realize it’s not in America.) Skinny people will love it, and big people might be inspired to diet.

Claustrophobia be damned; when do I move in?

I don’t think drunk walking is any safer than drunk driving. This is really off the topic. Just saying.

Amsterdam has narrower houses including one that’s only as wide as the door:

(can’t find any info about the property sadly)

This is just simply brilliant use of space! I would adore that house. However, not for that price

I think it’s pretty neat. But Christmas parties could be a bit awkward…maybe the lack of a railing is so that you can jump over other people to get by them.

Indeed there is. For example, there's this fine house in Madre de Deus, Brazil, which is only 1 meter wide at the entrance (just over three feet for the metrically declined).

The Google Streetview image – yes absolutely. It’s even folding a little.
