Isn't the real estate mantra "location, location, location"? Well, what the Smallest House in Great Britain lacks in square footage it makes up for in location. It's located right on the river in Conwy, Wales, which is a charming medieval town that's famous for its castle. The town also still has its protective walls in place.

As a lifelong New Yorker, I was worried that the Smallest House in Great Britain wouldn't be small enough. Our apartments here are quite small by non—New York standards, and I think a lot of people would be very surprised to see what we consider spacious. But then again, this isn't the Smallest Apartment, it's the Smallest House. And yes, the Smallest House was definitely small enough for me.The house is 72 inches wide and 122 inches high. It's actually a duplex, if you can believe it, with the bed on the top floor. There isn't room for a bathroom, so they would have to use one outside the house. (Although it hasn't been occupied since 1900, so an exterior toilet may have not have been as unusual back then.)

The most recent tenant was a fisherman who was six-foot-three. That must have been an uncomfortable living situation — at least he was close to work! (The photo below is taken directly outside the house.) While the house seems too small for even one person. an elderly couple once lived there too. If you're looking for a slightly larger abode, be sure to check out the huge castle a very short walk away.
