Description

Set in the Hamlet of Llandough, a short distance from Cowbridge, this detached four-bedroom house was built in the 1960s and is being offered for sale for the first time. Its split-level arrangement and original architectural details provide scope for a considered programme of updating, subject to the buyer's plans and any necessary checks. The entrance hall has a high, timber-lined ceiling and skylights, with stairs connecting the lower ground and bedroom levels. The accommodation includes a lounge with a high ceiling, feature fireplace and glazed doors opening to the rear garden, as well as a separate dining room with garden access and an opening to the kitchen. There is also a study, a cloakroom and a side hall with utility space and access to the integral garage, which has a mezzanine storage area. The kitchen is fitted with wall and base units, a double oven, hob and fridge. Upstairs, the principal bedroom has a dressing room, en-suite bathroom and access to a covered balcony. A further double bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, with two additional bedrooms and a family bathroom completing the bedroom accommodation. Outside, the front garden includes a lawn and driveway with parking for several vehicles. The rear garden has a paved patio and a large lawn with mature trees and shrubs, on sloping ground. The property also has an integral garage and an oil-fired central heating boiler. The EPC rating is E.

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

77out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £625,000, this four-bedroom detached house is priced at about £277 per sq ft, well below the local average of £362 — a strong opportunity to acquire a substantial home at a relative discount. The established garden, integral garage, balcony and generous, light-filled living spaces give the project plenty to build on, with distinctive timber ceilings and original 1960s character setting it apart.

The interior is usable but dated, with worn carpets and older finishes across several rooms; the kitchen and bathrooms offer scope for modernisation. The visible wall staining, including a brownish stain in a bedroom, merits investigation. With a renovation range of £18,000–£32,000, this looks like a focused medium-scale project rather than a wholesale rebuild.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated finishes and worn flooring across the photographed rooms, with the kitchen and bathrooms offering further optional updating.
  • Make the most of the large, light-filled living spaces, extensive glazing and distinctive timber-lined ceilings to create a contemporary family home while retaining its character.
  • Enjoy the established garden, balcony, driveway and integral garage as valuable features from the outset.

Key risks

  • Visible wall staining, including a brownish stain in a bedroom, should be investigated to establish its cause.
