Renters in San Diego could be in for a case of sticker shock if they're in the market for a backyard shed.
A listing recently posted online advertises a 200-square-foot studio for $1,050 a month. The unit is located in what appears to be a backyard shed behind a home in the city's North Park neighborhood.
"I was amazed it was going for that much money," neighborhood resident Joe Moreno told KGTV. "Does it have plumbing? I mean, does it have facilities?"

That renter paid $1,100 a month for two years.
