April 29th Auction - Substantial semi-detached period property in a generous plot, in this landmark Penarth location. Planning applied for a rear two storey extension to then provide a five bedroom, four bathroom modern home extending to approximately 3500sqft including the basement. (Planning ref - 2025/00048/FUL)
The house itself has had a large amount of preparatory work including the demolition of the dangerous former rear annexe as well as preparatory work to the remaining main house. The current owner has also renewed utility supplies into the property and stripped it back to brick to provide a ready to go project once the planning application has been approved. (Due prior to our 28th April auction.)
The property is currently laid out with large entrance hall and a double thru reception to the ground floor, upstairs is a substantial open landing designed to house a study to the front of the house as well as another two rooms which will provide the main principle suite with bedroom, dressing room and en-suite bathroom. To the top floor are three further rooms which would provide two bedrooms and a bathroom on the plans. There is also a useful basement with full head height below the hallway.
The plans provide for a further open plan living/kitchen/dining area plus WC and utility to the ground floor extension and a further two bedrooms and bathrooms to the first floor extension. Outside there is a driveway with space for a number of cars as well as a front garden. To the rear is a generous and level rear garden which would require full landscaping following the planned works.
Some plans are attached but please refer to the Vale of Glamorgan planning portal for full details of the application and its progress - Ref - 2025/00048/FUL.
We would consider that the property in its current state would be considered derelict and therefore LTT would be considered to be at a reduced commercial rate but please make your own enquiries in this regard. We make no guarantees on the amount of LTT due following purchase.

Apply for Finance* Generally speaking Guide Prices are provided as an indication of each seller's minimum expectation, i.e. 'The Reserve'. They are not necessarily figures which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. Virtually every property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we expect will be set within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure Guide.
By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
