Summary - ALMA HOUSE, DUNCAN STREET, CARMARTHEN, LAUGHARNE SA33 4SW
5 bed 2 bath House
Large character home in Laugharne with strong renovation and conversion potential.
Five large bedrooms across a substantial period footprint
Alma House is a spacious, period property in the riverside township of Laugharne, offered as a single large home that was formerly two dwellings. The house retains many Georgian features — weighted box-sash windows, original stair, exposed stone walls, fireplaces and beamed ceilings — giving a strong characterful canvas for restoration or sympathetic updating.
Internally the layout is generous: four reception rooms, a conservatory, oil-fired central heating, and five large bedrooms across the upper floors. There is useful ancillary space including a utility/boiler room, a substantial former adjoining cottage wing and a masonry double garage (one bay houses the oil tank). Subject to planning permission the property could be reconfigured back into two linked homes (three-bed plus two-bed), which may suit investor or multi-generational uses.
The house needs renovation to bring it to modern standards. Walls are likely uninsulated granite, some plastering and cosmetic work is required in the kitchen and other rooms, and finishing works remain following previous refurbishment. Heating runs from an oil boiler; there is double glazing but install dates are unknown. The garden and small front courtyard are low-maintenance but limited in size.
Set in a very low-crime, village environment with excellent mobile signal and walking distance to Laugharne’s amenities and coastline, the property is appealing to buyers looking for a character home with scope to add value through careful renovation or conversion. Council tax is above average and the wider area shows signs of economic deprivation, which may affect resale timing in some markets.
