A three-bedroom mid-terrace in Tonypandy offered for online auction with an indicative guide price of £46,000. The property is freehold and comes with vacant possession; it requires full renovation and is presented as a straightforward refurbishment project. Ground floor layout includes open-plan lounge/diner, kitchen and WC; first floor offers three bedrooms and a bathroom. A small enclosed rear courtyard provides limited outdoor space.
This lot is best suited to buy-to-let investors or hands-on developers seeking a low entry-price project. Market commentary estimates a rental of around £700–£800 pcm once refurbished, depending on finish and standards. Good local transport links (mainline station and road access to the A470/M4), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support rental demand.
Key drawbacks are material: the interior is worn with peeling wallpaper and dated finishes, and the property requires renovation throughout. The area records high crime levels and is very deprived, which may affect tenant choice, yields and resale value. The auction format and repair needs mean some buyers should budget for time, refurbishment costs and possible rental voids before income is achieved.
