Description
This three-bedroom semi-detached house is in the Pen Y Wern area of Stradey, Llanelli. The accommodation includes an entrance porch, hallway, lounge, kitchen/diner, understairs storage, landing and bathroom. Two bedrooms have built-in cupboards. The property has been a family home for many years and is described as requiring updating, offering scope for a new owner to refresh it to their requirements.
Outside, there is a front driveway and lawn, with gated access to an enclosed rear garden that is mainly laid to lawn and includes outbuildings. Local amenities mentioned include schools, a college and convenience stores, with the Millennium Coastal Path also nearby. The property is traditionally built and connected to mains water, electricity, gas and sewerage. The EPC rating is D and the council tax band is B. The agent notes asbestos roofing on the outbuildings, polystyrene ceiling tiles in some rooms, title covenants and easements, and recommends a mining report.

Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This three-bedroom semi has a usable layout, driveway and enclosed lawned garden, with a clear medium-scale improvement canvas: the photographed kitchen and bathroom are dated, and the bedroom floors and finishes could be refreshed. Its Pen Y Wern setting, near schools, local shops and the coastal path, adds appeal, while the lounge and bedrooms appear usable.
The price is the harder part of the case. At £149,950, it is around 6.6% above the local £/sqf average, and adding a mid-to-substantial programme of works would leave the overall outlay stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area. That comparison is with current local average value, not a forecast of the property's value after renovation. The listing also flags asbestos roofing on the outbuildings, polystyrene ceiling tiles and a recommended mining report.
Key opportunities
- Refresh or rework the dated kitchen and bathroom as part of a medium-scale improvement plan.
- Improve the worn or unfinished bedroom flooring and dated finishes across the photographed living spaces.
- Make use of the driveway and enclosed lawned garden, with scope for a straightforward garden tidy-up.
Key risks
- At the asking price, the purchase plus a mid-to-substantial works programme looks stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area; this is not a post-renovation value forecast.
- The listing identifies asbestos roofing on the outbuildings and polystyrene ceiling tiles, which need appropriate assessment and handling.
- A mining report is recommended, and the listing notes covenants and easements on the title.
