Unassuming terraced house may have Britain's smallest garden measuring just 3ft by 3ft

This unassuming terraced house may well have Britain's smallest garden - at around 3ft by 3ft.

The one-bedroomed unique home is on the market with agents Whitehornes for £185,000 with a green space described as a "private compact courtyard garden".

But buyers may be disappointed when they see the tiny outdoor space.

Crushed in what appears to be an old window opening or coal shoot, the 'courtyard' is only large enough for a single person to stand in, or perhaps two who are well acquainted at a push.

Despite having a fairly decent price tag, the area on offer barely looks big enough to fit a table and chair in, however it has been adorned with two small pot plants.

The home is up for grabs in the Sheffield district of Hunter's Bar, Sheffield, where the average terrace costs £291,000.

The one-bed house is described as a "super quirky and individually designed one double bedroomed, bay windowed terraced property" in estate agent details on rightmove.co.uk.

It goes on: "With accommodation spanning over three floors that offer a light, spacious and contemporary feel, number 30 will be incredibly popular with the professional couple, first time buyer and those looking to invest in equal measures.

"With a private compact courtyard garden, it's easy to say that viewing is absolutely essential to do full justice to this property.

"Perfectly placed on this well sought after residential road within a short stroll of Sharrow Vale with its array of independent cafes, eateries, shops, Dyson place, Endcliffe park is also on hand, as is central Sheffield, universities, hospitals and of course the Peak District is right next door."

And it adds: "From Sharrow heading up toward Ecclesall Road and Hunters Bar, you really do see Sheffield in its diverse glory.

"There are numerous shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and pubs spanning every genre making Ecclesall Road a vibrant and popular choice for a day or night shopping and/or socialising.

"With Sheffield Hallam University's Collegiate Campus being nearby, there are many investment opportunities for student housing.

"With Sheffield's high retention rate of graduates, many young professionals look to rent in this area due to its cosmopolitan yet familiar feel.

"The city centre and train station is only a short bus ride away on a well run route making it a perfect choice for city workers and commuters alike."

The pad is also close to Endcliffe Park - dubbed "one of Sheffield's most popular outdoor spaces, due to the many outdoor events held there such as traveling circuses, fairs and music events including tramlines."

Ironically the brochure also boasts of the area's "large green spaces", which the new owner of this property may need.
