An online auction will be held for former Llandrindod Wells police station and court

A former police station in Llandrindod Wells has gone on the market, offering buyers the chance to create a “truly individual” four-bedroom home.

No.1 The Old Police Station on Waterloo Road is being sold by auction, with a guide price of £298,000+, with agents describing it as a “rare and characterful landmark former civic building”.

The property retains a number of original architectural and period features, and is being marketed as a renovation project with exciting potential.

Much of the work has already been carried out by the current owners, who have added a mezzanine floor above the former court room, including a walkway connecting the bathroom area to the main bedroom space.

Auctioneers Paul Fosh said the building offers “strong external appearance” combined with adaptable internal space, including the possibility of creating a separate flat at one end while redesigning the main part of the building.

Outside, the property has a small grass area to the front and side, with a large rear yard providing access and parking for several vehicles.

The auction listing describes it as a “Grand Designs-style project” which could appeal to architects, developers, self-build enthusiasts or private buyers looking for a distinctive home.

It adds: “Whether approached as a bold contemporary transformation or a sensitive restoration retaining original features, the building offers the kind of scale, identity and creative potential seldom found on the open market.

“Buyers should rely on their own inspection and due diligence in relation to the current layout, condition, measurements and future usability of the property.”

The online auction runs from July 28 to July 30.
