"we do not have access to the ground floor and don't expect to see it before you buy"
Just what is so bad or unsafe about it?
By gutting it, fitting (well nearly fitting) a new kitchen and bathroom upstairs, they hope to woo buyers? I bet they are not even connected and working.
But seriously, in an age when we need to be making our buildings more efficient, why would anyone want to mess about with a derelict, probably unsafe, certainly un insulated and draughty old wreck of a house? the best thing you could do there is buldoze it and build a completely new house in it's place to modern standards.
And why would you pay so much for a wreck when in the same village you can buy a house ready to move into for probably no more than you would pay for that wreck after winning the auction and paying the fees. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/138014996#/?channel=RES_BUY5 -
Blaenau Ffestiniog sits within (but excluded from) Snowdonia National Park. Perhaps this is some way impacts redevelopment? With the mountain right behind the property, there is likely no room to place a larger property on the plot. Perhaps aimed at being holiday let’s with a UNESCO Heritage site on its door step.0
