A room rivalling Harry Potter’s cupboard under the stairs has been put up for rent in north London – but the privilege of living there will cost you £350 per month.

The tiny cupboard - being marketed as a single room - forms part of a converted warehouse which is a seven-minute walk from Seven Sisters Tube station.

The room features a single bed, which appears to be squeezed into the tiny space, a clothes hanging rail and a small dressing table.

The advert, which was posted on Gumtree, states: “We have a room which is literally a cupboard under the stairs going in our warehouse."

The warehouse, which is home to eight others, two cats and a dog, is said to contain a “nice living space where you can always find someone to talk about everything and not lock yourself in a room”.

The room may be seen as yet another sign of London's overheated housing market - and is not even the first cupboard under the stairs to go up for rent.

One househunter was shocked to discover a similar room available in Clapham for £500 a month last year.
