Nestled within a row of terraces is a one-bed home that stands out from the crowd and not just because of its sky blue painted façade.
The little blue home is currently the cheapest house for sale in Wales according to property portal Rightmove, with an asking price of £39,950, so there's no need to battle with other bidders at an auction for this bargain building.
The property has been priced at around a similar level as a brand new, high-end car such as a VW Golf or Mercedes, for a quick sale and offers one bedroom for a more comfortable sleep than the back seat of a car.

And you don't have to worry about trying to secure the house at the lowest possible price, fighting it out with online bidders for a chance to bag it and watching the guide price soar above your buying budget because this bargain is a straight sale, not an auction property.
Located along a road that hugs the Rhondda Fach valley hillside in Tylorstown, the house might be small but the views from the bonus back garden and the rear windows for its elevated position are big - an uninterrupted, panoramic view of the opposite side of the valley hillside.
The quiet residential street is lined with traditional Welsh valleys terraces within this small village, but just around a few corners are some handy local shops and amenities, a larger supermarket, a primary school and Tylorstown Welfare Hall, plus Cwm Rhondda Fach sports centre and a five-a-side football pitch.
Back at the house, that is the centre property in a cute terrace of three, there is renovation work to do but at this price level many potential buyers might be worried when they push open the front door regarding what they might find on the other side.
A full survey should reveal most hidden problems to fix, but on first look the house is a surprise - there's work to do but it is not a rundown, slipping into dereliction property that the price might first suggest.
The estate agents selling the blue abode state that the property will require some renovation and modernisation and therefore is being offered for sale at this very realistic price in order to achieve a quick sale.
This cute first-time buyers or downsizers home opens into a single space on the ground floor with two rooms knocked together to create a more spacious feel but a partial slice of the wall retained to zone the room into kitchen and living space.
The fake beams and bumpy ceiling plasterwork might not be to everyone's taste but the potential to create a comfortable space here is obvious, especially if the renovation is based on thoughtful design that includes multi-functional and smaller proportioned furniture, bespoke built-in storage and clever ways to bounce light around the room.
From the kitchen there is a door out into the surprise garden, such a bonus to find some private outside space coming with a lower priced property purchase, and this one, once given some attention is going to be probably the star of this home.
Elevated above the road below there is no access directly from it so no-one can interrupt your morning coffee, alfresco lunch with friends, or evening drink.
Upstairs the single bedroom is open plan and to make the room feel bigger the ceiling has been removed to create a double-height space and revealing presumably real beams that add to the home's character.
The shower room off the bedroom is compact but modern and, as with the rest of the house, could do with a freshen up but is by no means in a state.
The house priced for a quick sale that is vacant and comes with no onward chain is on the market for £39,950 with Property Plus estate agents, call their Tonyrefail branch on 0800 043 7300 to find out more.
