A substantial Victorian detached house on a large plot, offered at online auction (7–9 October 2025). Built in 1876, the property has four bedrooms, multiple reception rooms and a long driveway with off-street parking. Its size and room layout create clear scope for an investor conversion into apartments or an HMO, subject to planning consent. The listing includes a projected rental of about £1,150 pcm and the property will be sold with vacant possession.
The house benefits from double glazing, gas central heating (both untested), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and is within walking distance of local schools and Tonypandy railway station. Low local crime and convenient amenities add to its lettable appeal. The large lawned garden and an outbuilding with electricity increase usable space and potential value-add opportunities.
Important drawbacks are clear: the property is described as needing renovation and shows structural issues and signs of dereliction in places. Buyers should expect significant repair and maintenance costs; services and heating have not been tested and any conversion will require planning and building-regulation approvals. The property sits in a very deprived area, which may affect demand and valuation — scale and scope of works should be verified by surveyors and planners before bidding.
For investors the combination of size, location and vacant possession offers repositioning potential, but budget realistically for refurbishment and remedial works. For an owner-occupier prepared to renovate, this is a characterful family house with long-term upside once repairs and modernisation are completed.
