Could somebody please open the window?

300 Hawthorne Ave, South Milwaukee, WI

Known locally as the Hawthorne House, it was originally built in 1851 by the Fowle family and had served as a farmhouse for 80 years.
Sometime in the 1920s or 1930s, the property was then donated to the Girl Scouts of America, who then started renovations on the bathroom to better accommodate their members.  With a troop having around a dozen girls, the reasoning behind the multiple toilets — perhaps there used to be dividers? — and sinks (on the other side of the room; see below) now makes more sense.



Oh, and if you're interested, it's for sale.  Six bedrooms, three baths (this one and two others), total of 3900 square feet, with an asking price below a half-million dollars.

That wouldn't buy you a bathroom around here.

The 75 sq ft (7sq metre) flat, in Clapton, east London, is located on the first floor of a Victorian terraced house and comes with a 994 years lease.

It consists of a studio living space with a built-in bed - complete with a microwave underneath it - as well as a fold-out table, a tiny cooking space, and a separate toilet with sink, shower and heated towel rail.

The auction is set to start on 15 February, and will close the next day, with the highest bidder becoming the owner of one of London's smallest flats.

London house property auctioning house My Auction, who is representing the flat, describes it as 'investment opportunity producing £9,600 per annum.'

The tiny property is located between Homerton, Hackney Downs and Overground stations and is located close to Homerton University Hospital.

Stuart Collar-Brown, a director of My Auction, said: 'The flat is small — but then again, you also can’t buy a long-leasehold property in central London for £50,000 so it’s a great opportunity for someone to get on the ladder.'
