A substantial Victorian mid-terrace in the heart of Talgarth, set within the Brecon Beacons National Park. The house offers generous living space across multiple levels (approximately 1,385 sq ft), three bedrooms and flexible ground-floor rooms that formerly operated as a tearoom. Period features and large front windows give the property charm and strong scope for a sympathetic refurbishment.
The accommodation requires full modernisation throughout: the interior needs updating, heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators, and walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation. Double glazing was installed post-2002, which reduces immediate glazing work, but the property will benefit from insulation, kitchen and bathroom replacement, and general decorative works to unlock its full potential.
This freehold house suits a buyer looking for a renovation project or someone seeking a roomy first home in a quiet market town. Talgarth offers local amenities, nearby schools, and outdoor leisure in the national park. Practical considerations include average mobile and broadband speeds, low crime, no flood risk, and a location in an area classed as having higher deprivation — factors that may influence resale or rental values.
Externally there is a covered rear area and useful storage beneath the large rear porch. The layout and former commercial use give potential for flexible reuse (subject to any required consents). Buyers should expect modernisation costs and check services as installations have not been tested.
