Even for the most space- deprived urbanite, this shoebox of a house located in the Dufferin / Rogers area of Toronto, is a bit snug. As one of Toronto's smallest properties, it's squeezed between two towering homes on what used to be a driveway. The 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom hut sits on a parcel of land 7.25 feet wide and 113.67 feet long and has an interior area of just under 300 square feet. The home may be tight for space, but with an asking price of $179,900 it's a runaway bargain. Here are shots of the living room looking towards the front and back of the house:

The kitchen area actually looks more spacious than most I've seen in small condos in the city. Despite the narrowness of the place, the owners managed to fit in a washer and dryer:

To help open up space, this room comes with its own Murphy bed, which is necessary when you have less than 50 square feet to work with. You can see that the room offers more walking space once the bed is retracted:

But the real icing on this cupcake of a home is the patio space out back:
