Description
Offered at auction, this three-bedroom detached house in Burry Port is arranged over three floors and retains traditional features including bay windows, high ceilings and fireplaces. The ground floor has an entrance porch, central hall and three separate reception rooms, with a conservatory at the rear overlooking the garden. The kitchen is described as suitable for redesign and modernisation.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and a large family bathroom, which the listing says requires modernisation. A staircase leads to a converted attic with exposed beams and roof windows; purchasers should check its approved use and any relevant consents. Gardens are provided at the front and rear.
The property is being sold by the Modern Method of Auction, with a 56-day reservation period. A buyer information pack fee and a non-refundable reservation fee apply in addition to the purchase price. Buyers should review the auction terms and pack, and confirm the attic's status and any required approvals before proceeding.

Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £250,000, this substantial bay-fronted house is priced at about £96/sq ft, well below the local average of £212/sq ft—a strong entry point for a buyer looking to create value. Its generous proportions, three reception rooms, traditional fireplaces, large conservatory and converted attic offer a distinctive canvas, with scope to redesign the kitchen, modernise the bathroom and improve the gardens. The attic’s approved use and compliance should be checked.
This is a substantial project rather than a cosmetic refresh: dated finishes, worn flooring and localised wall damage appear across several rooms, while the exterior and gardens also need attention. The £55,000–£95,000 renovation range gives a sense of the work involved. The sale is by the Modern Method of Auction; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- Use the three generous reception rooms, bay windows and traditional features to create a distinctive family-home layout.
- Redesign the dated kitchen and bathroom, and make use of the large conservatory and converted attic, subject to verification of the attic’s approved use and compliance.
- Refresh the front and rear gardens, including the overgrown boundaries and worn paving, to complement the house’s traditional frontage.
Key risks
- Worn finishes and flooring across several rooms, bathroom deterioration, localised wall damage, exterior maintenance and garden repairs make the £55,000–£95,000 works range a substantial programme to budget and schedule, not a cosmetic refresh.
- The converted attic’s approved use and compliance with relevant consents and building regulations require verification.
