A compact three-storey commercial freehold on Castle Street, a busy route beside the market hall and close to the Cathedral and Castle Hotel. The property totals about 611 sq ft with one main room on each floor, a ground-floor kitchen and a second-floor toilet — straightforward layout for a small shop, studio or office base in Brecon.
The building dates from before 1900 with sandstone/limestone walls and double glazing. It benefits from mains gas central heating and mains services, and sits inside Brecon Beacons National Park with no flood risk. The rateable value is £2,375, and the property is offered at £60,000 — an inexpensive freehold for an entry-level commercial holding in the town centre fringe.
There are clear renovation needs: the kitchen has damp and will require repair, and the building is described as needing renovation generally. The walls are likely uninsulated, and some modernisation of services, finishes and accessibility should be expected. The area shows high crime and very deprived local indicators, which could affect footfall and lettability but also keeps initial purchase costs low.
This property suits an investor, artisan retailer or local professional seeking a low-cost, central Brecon presence and willing to carry out remedial and cosmetic work. Its small footprint and simple layout make conversion and short-term occupation feasible, while the location beside established town-centre amenities provides ongoing customer exposure.
