In addition, the buyers may not be able to build on the land again.

Sean Roper, of Paul Fosh Auctions, Newport, said: "That property is in a row of terraced houses and all the properties have a demolition order on them.

"The likely hood is that property will be demolished in the future but they will be left with the land.

"The demolition order was because of a landslide a couple of years ago which affected the whole row.

"Due to the landslide, buyers may not be able to build on the land again but it could be used as an allotment space or a garden area.

"The property has stunning views of the mountain so even as a garden space it would be lovely. Or for an allotment.

"Who wouldn't want to plant vegetables looking at that?"

The abode is described as offering "generous accommodation over three floors and will require full upgrading".

It also comes with a derelict property that "offers potential".

The home is in the village of Ystalfera, which is located 15 minutes away from the M4 and is a mere 30 minutes away from Brecon Beacons National Park for anyone who loves the outdoors.
