Last month, the "narrowest house in New York City" went on sale for $2.7 million, and it's still on the market. The terrifically narrow brick building, which was built in 1873, is located in Greenwich Village and built into an alley.
Now, Ikea's offering the future buyers of this squeezed-for-space home free design expertise and $10,000 in furniture.
"We know that space is at a premium in most homes and especially in this particular home. In fact, the Huffington Post quoted the real estate broker saying that you'd have to be 'clever in how you decorate' it," noted Janice Simonsen, Ikea design expert and spokesperson, in a press release. "We're so in love with small spaces that we're putting an offer on the table, albeit a skinny table – free furniture and design expertise to the eventual buyers."
Would the offer of free design advice and $10K worth of furniture from Ikea prompt you to buy this narrow and multimillion dollar home?

If I had the money to buy that house then 10K would be pocket change, so it wouldn't entice me in the slightest bit.
1I agree with SkinnyMarie. The house is just way to small and especially for that much money
2The house is small, but owning a house in Manhattan> Oh if only I had the money!
3And living in a very small condo now, I would gladly take up Ikea's offer to furnish the space. Hey if Ikea offers to redo my current digs, I'd take them up on it! LOL
I don't care what the location is, the place is just too darn small. Single people want more space nowadays. And that price should come waaaay down in my opinion.
4A 2.7 million dollar home with cheap Ikea furniture? I don't care how small it is, Ikea isn't quality.
