A four-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house on Brecon Road, offered chain-free and sold by Modern Method of Auction. The property sits on a decent plot with off-street parking, gated rear access and a large garden—features that appeal to buyers seeking space or rental potential in Ystradgynlais. The building’s period character is intact: high ceilings, red brick chimneys and traditional room proportions provide a strong canvas for refurbishment.
Internally the layout is straightforward: two reception rooms, a kitchen, and a ground-floor bathroom with one upstairs bathroom (one bathroom in total). The property requires modernization—particularly the kitchen and some exterior work—so it suits a buyer prepared to invest in upgrading. Heating is by boiler and anthracite fuel; double glazing was installed post-2002 and walls have external insulation.
This sale is via auction. Buyers must complete within a 56-day Reservation Period and will pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600 inc. VAT), plus a £349 Buyer Information Pack fee. These additional costs are material to affordability and should be factored into any purchase or renovation budget. Mortgage buyers should confirm lending before bidding.
Good nearby amenities include cafés, shops, schools and outdoor attractions such as the Brecon Beacons and Craig Y Nos Castle. The property’s modest purchase price and no upper chain make it attractive for investors, developers or DIY-minded owner-occupiers seeking period features and garden space in an established town location.
