There is such a startup in London (and elsewhere maybe) but the problem is the costs are greater than the cost of a true co-working space. WeWork in London has hot desks from about £10/day (monthly) and £20/day (pay as you go). A homeowner isn’t going to let someone use their home all day to make a few £.

Are you sure? I mean if I had the space and situation (that is, an office room separate from the rest of the house, e.g. a garage) it's something I'd consider. It probably doesn't fall under hotel / lodging laws either.
You’re looking at 1/10th of the earnings you’d generate from AirBnB with the same amount of work. You have to manage bookings, grant access (working around your own availability), handle insurance and clean up. Would you deal with all of that for less than £10/day once or twice a week? The pitch makes sense for larger spaces that can accommodate teams — like the examples on the site — but for individuals there’s no value.
