Llanidloes isn't too far from me. Its a pleasant place near Hafren Forest (that of RAC Rally fame).
From looking at streetview the front has been a house since at least 2008. I'll keep looking to see if I can find any information about it being a proper garage before, which as Remmington points out it most probably was.
The location, on Long Bridge Street in Llanidloes would have been very busy up until the early 1990s as the A470 trunk road (Wales' main North-South route) would have gone through there. Its now carried on a bypass using the old railway route on the other side of the town.

Shame - looks a good site (vehicle access to front and back with parking) - but things change and nothing stays the same! 3 bed with office and workshop @ £283k Which is cheap - but only the front building is the freehold the rear workshop is by "overage agreement". An overage agreement (also known as the clawback or uplift agreement) is where a buyer agrees to pay the seller extra money where the value of the site increases in the future.Which means the seller has not got the bottle or funds to build on the garage space - but wants extra cash into the future. Only way you should or could buy this - is a hard freehold purchase bid. Or walk away!This would never be a garage again in the "south of england" - the "house always wins" - by this I mean - property developers snatch these sites up for development. There is so little "garage space" avail' in the South it is unreal... |

I don't know a lot about Overage so how is it calculated?  |

i would imagine it's been an mot station at some time as the brake rollers covers are sill fitted
as Remington said would only entertain it as freehold, can't see a ramp in there either unless they're counting the single brick one, just a pit with a jacking beam
