A strange property recently sold for more than 29,000 euros in London (United Kingdom). It is not an apartment or even a parking space but a disused stairwell, located in the southwestern suburbs of the British capital, reports the BBC.

It is an entrepreneur 49 year old who bought the property located behind a Starbucks, for exactly 25,000 pounds sterling. If the stairwell has four floors and a beautiful light thanks to its fully glazed exterior, one can rightly wonder what it will be used for in the future, specifies the HuffPost.

A future meeting place for entrepreneurs?

Described as close to public transport and many shops, the stairwell has strong “development potential” according to the real estate agency that put it up for sale. Assets in which the entrepreneur, who wants to show that “nothing is impossible”, believed. He now intends to renovate the property to make it a meeting place for entrepreneurs or a space hosting ephemeral stores.

The disused stairwell is in the township of Twickenham, where homes sell for an average of £400,000. For many observers and specialists, this unusual sale is a glaring symbol of the housing crisis that has affected the whole of the United Kingdom for several months.
