This three-bed semi-detached property could be yours for just £68k – but there's a catch.
The home in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales is being offered at auction – but needs substantial work before it would be livable.
Photos show peeling plaster and wallpaper behind which lie crumbling walls stained with a series of dark brown patches.
The floors are covered with dust, debris and rubbish, and mounds of belongings – including books, bed sheets, and suitcases – are piled in the rooms.
However, sellers believe that the house – which boasts a wealth of period features – could become something truly special for anyone willing to put in the time and effort.
Sean Roper, of Newport-based Paul Fosh Auctions, said: “The house has the basics which, in the right hands, will make a truly wonderful family home.
“Any buyer will have to look beyond what is currently before their eyes to see what can be achieved.”
The house has two reception rooms, a kitchen and dining room, three bedrooms, and a bathroom.
It has stained glass windows and an array of charming period features – such as a solid balustrade – as well as front and rear gardens which boast “outstanding” views of the surrounding mountains.
“It is just a short distance from the town center with an excellent range of shops, amenities, and restaurants, bars and pubs,” Mr Roper added.
“There are also great transport links with a train station with direct links to Cardiff and road links to the A465 and A470.”
The house is located at 2 Alexandra Road in Merthyr Tydfil – a town which, according to Mr Roper, is currently enjoying “a prolonged period of renewed investment and job creation”.
He continued: “The house requires full modernization but, if retained, the many original features would enhance any future improvements.”
The property will be offered for sale online along with 90 others at Paul Fosh Auctions on Tuesday, June 18.
The auction starts at noon and ends at 5:30pm on Thursday, June 20.
The house has been listed with a guide price of £68,000+.
