The things you can buy in Wales for the price of this London flat

A one-bedroom London flat has been listed on Zoopla with a guide price of £200,000.

The property in Colville Road is described as "a wonderful opportunity to create a London bolthole in this prime central location in W11."

It's a studio apartment that has the bedroom, kitchen, and shower all in one space and is said to need "complete modernisation throughout".

It's been doing the rounds on social media with a few users seemingly shocked at the high price of the flat.

And while that might be just about right for the properties in London there's a whole host of unique, quirky and charming properties in Wales that you can pick up for the same price – the only downside is you probably won't be able to do the dishes while you shower.

This is the London flat in question. £200,000 will get you this – more details can be found here.

The building is lovely from the outside (Zoopla)
But a bit tight on space inside (Zoopla)

Here are some properties you can get in Wales for the same £200,000 price tag.

This former church

(Zoopla)

A former church near Penmaenmawr, which is described as a "unique development opportunity", is going for the same price.

Obviously it needs a bit of work inside but it's already been granted planning permission and has brilliant sea views.

Where: Fairy Glen Road, Capelulo, Dwygyfylchi

Details: Penmaenmawr

This old pub

(Zoopla)

If you ever fancied taking on a pub, and maybe even living on-site, this is your chance.

Inside there's a bar, restaurant, beer cellar, toilets, a commercial kitchen, and store rooms. Outside there's also covered seating area.

And you'll also find a self-contained bedsit on the first floor.

Where: Gors Road, Burry Port

This lush bit of land

(Zoopla)

Just look at those views. This coastal land, complete with elevated panoramic views, costs the same as that flat.

It's roughly 56 acres in total, made up of:

  • About 25 acres of quality level pasture/arable land with road frontage
  • About nine acres of sloping rough grazing land
  • About 22 acres of coastal slope/cliff land down to sea

Where: Moylgrove, near Newport, Pembrokeshire

This cute cottage with stunning views

If you're looking for the quiet life, with incredible views, then look no further.

The same money buys you this three-storey cottage in Waunfawr, near Caernarfon, that comes with useful basement space, off-road parking, and a beautiful garden.

It's been well maintained by the current owners, is deceptively spacious, and has some incredible mountain views.

Where: Waunfawr, Caernarfon

This investment opportunity

(Zoopla)

This six-bed house has been upgraded through the rejuvenation scheme by the Conwy council.

It has been converted into three self-contained flats offering well-maintained accommodation throughout while retaining many of its original charm and character which are in keeping with the age of this period property.

It's described as an "investment opportunity with sitting tenants".

Where: Colwyn Bay

Details: Greenfield Road, Colwyn Bay, Conwy
