Set just a minute’s walk from historic Kidwelly Castle, this two-bedroom mid-terrace stone cottage offers clear potential for a buyer prepared to modernise. The house is freehold, chain-free and will be sold at auction, which suits buyers seeking a relatively quick purchase.
Internally the layout includes two reception rooms, an open-plan kitchen/diner, two good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom across approximately 1,028 sq ft. Practical benefits include mains gas heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing installed before 2002, and off-street parking to the rear plus a garden with scope to improve.
The property requires renovation throughout — cosmetic updates and likely thermal upgrades are needed. The original stone walls appear uninsulated; the energy rating is E (EER 55 D). These factors mean refurbishment costs should be factored into any offer, but they also create strong scope to add value for a first-time buyer or investor.
Note the location sits within a very deprived area classification which can affect resale timing and local services. Flood risk is low and local crime rates are low. This is a straightforward purchase for someone wanting a character property near local amenities and the castle, willing to invest time and money to modernise.
