Description

Ty Carwyn is a Grade II listed, four-storey town-centre building with a two-storey rear extension and enclosed courtyard. It has previously been used as offices and has planning consent for a change of use to a residential dwelling, together with Listed Building consent. The accommodation is described as seven bedrooms, with two reception rooms and a kitchenette on the ground floor, five rooms and a cloakroom on the first floor, and three further rooms, a cloakroom and a store on the second floor. A basement includes a boiler and strong room. The listing reports that works have been carried out to the building fabric, including render and painting, repairs and replacement to timber windows and doors, and replacement fascia boarding. Some areas have been decorated, while other parts need further updating. Flooring is identified as outstanding before occupation. Mains electricity, water, drainage and gas central heating are stated. The property is freehold and offered with vacant possession. Outside, there is a small paved frontage and a rear tarmac courtyard with pedestrian access to an adjacent public car park. The building fronts St. Peter's Street in Carmarthen town centre, close to shops, food outlets and services. The planning permission is subject to obligations, including a Section 106 unilateral undertaking relating to affordable-housing commuted-sum payments. Buyers should obtain and review the planning and listed-building documents and confirm the obligations and scope of the consent with the selling agent.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

52out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

Ty Carwyn is a distinctive Grade II Listed, four-storey town-centre building with consent for conversion to a dwelling. Its historic details, maintained exterior and substantial accommodation offer an unusual canvas, while the interior is a medium-scale project: several areas are partly finished, but exposed floors and damaged or stripped wall finishes leave clear scope to complete and personalise it. The visible kitchenette is basic and utilitarian.

The overall WHOTS score is 52/100 (grade D), so this is a weaker opportunity rather than a clear-cut value play. Floor area is missing, which means value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; the £350,000 asking price alone is not enough to call it cheap or dear. The listing also notes a Section 106 affordable-housing commuted-sum obligation, so buyers should clarify its terms alongside the conversion consent.

Key opportunities

  • Use the existing residential change-of-use and Listed Building consents as the starting point for completing the conversion, subject to confirming their scope and conditions.
  • Bring the partly finished interior together with a medium-scale programme of floor finishes, wall preparation and decoration.
  • Make the building’s historic architectural details a feature of the finished home, while shaping the utilitarian kitchenette to suit the approved scheme.

Key risks

  • The Section 106 unilateral undertaking includes affordable-housing commuted-sum payments; clarify the obligation and its financial implications before proceeding.
  • Confirm the approved conversion layout and Listed Building requirements, as these may affect the specification and scope of interior works.
  • Without a usable floor area, value against local £/sqf cannot be judged.
