WHITFIELD: It's only 10 feet by eight feet. Here in the U.S. that's about the size of your average garden shed or closet, but in London, it's the size of an apartment. As Richard Quest shows us, this tiny space is going for big bucks.</s>RICHARD QUEST, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Some are compact, others bijou. Then there's flat 8-f. Nothing quite prepares you for something so small. This is it, all of it. There is no more. I can't touch from one side to the other without hitting the wall. I am 6'1" tall. And this is the length of the flat. The apartment is a converted porter's toilet and cloak room. It tasks even the estate agent's vocabulary.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Unusual, unique, interesting market opportunity. I would point out the high ceiling, the natural light coming through, the refurbishment, the location.</s>QUEST: The original asking price of $145,000 has been well exceeded. The current top offer is believed to be around $280,000 for one simple reason, the old rule location, location, location. This tiny apartment is in the best part of London and next to the top people's department store Herrod's.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: With this post you're going to get a hell of a lot of interest.</s>QUEST: The demand for this unique property has been intense, more than 100 viewings, a dozen offers. Ironically, the winner is likely to be an investor from Greece. More than a quarter of a million dollars -- it's an awful lot of money for not a lot of apartment. But if that is what someone will pay for it, then that's what 8F is worth. Richard Quest, CNN, London.</s>WHITFIELD: That's fascinating. Some very big stars are front and center at the box office this weekend. A movie critic grades their performances next.
