The tiny cottage has everything you'd expect in a studio flat.
Students in Lund in Sweden are competing to live in the country’s smallest student let.
The detached cottage has been constructed by Lund’s building foundation AF Bostäder with affordability in mind.
AFB’s CEO Rolf Svensson explained; “Students often just use their apartments to sleep in.
“They study in study dorms, have a social life outside of their homes, often can’t afford typical student housing… this is the perfect solution.”
The price of the tiny dwelling is 2500 kronor ($370) a month, the average price for a new build student apartment in Lund in 4167 kronor.
“We have a catch-22 situation. There is a shortage of student housing and the housing board’s regulations result in high building costs, and therefore expensive apartments,” said Mr Svensson.
The cottage has a small kitchen area, dining table, a bathroom with a toilet and shower, a sleeping loft and a desk underneath.
But AFB isn’t just looking for any tenant, the new occupier must be willing to blog about living in the compact cottage, and share their experiences.
The building foundation have applied to build 60 to 100 more of the cottages, but so far the bids have not been successful.
