The property, located on Llewellyn Street in Pentre near Treorchy, originally listed at £23,000, according to major media. The auction ended on Friday, April 16, with the house attracting 35 bids from prospective buyers, and nine bidders competed for it, according to major media. According to Daily Mirror - Main, Sean Roper described the property as seeing great interest from all over, with many intrigued by its size and shape and what could be done with such a compact space.
He noted it was so small he could touch each wall while standing in the lounge. The house includes a lounge, kitchen, hallway, fitted bathroom, single bedroom, garden, garage, UPVC double-glazing, and gas central heating, according to multiple reports. According to Daily Mirror - Main, Roper described it as a minuscule house that didn't deter bidders, and he called it a neat and attractive package in a well-connected part of South Wales.
The really quirky lot saw great interest from all over the place, with many intrigued with the size and shape of the slim property and what they could do with it being so compact. This really unusual cottage was so small I could touch each wall while standing in the lounge.
Several tiny properties are dotted around Wales, initially built as infill homes between existing houses to maximise available space, according to major media. A 16th Century house on the quayside in Conwy claims to be Britain's smallest, measuring just 6 feet wide and 10 feet high, according to major media. That house was declared unfit for habitation in 1900 when rented by a local fisherman who stood at 6 feet tall, according to major media.
The identity of the purchaser and their specific plans for the Pentre property, such as whether it will be used as a residence, investment, or holiday rental, have not been disclosed. Additionally, the exact length or total square footage of the property and how the sale price compares to typical property values in the area remain unknown, as does the current condition and habitability status of the Conwy house.
It's a minuscule house to say the least, but this didn't deter bidders with a total of nine competing to win the property by lodging a total of 35 bids.
The terraced cottage style property has all you need.
Altogether it is a very neat and attractive package in what is a lovely and well-connected part of South Wales.
