A Swansea city centre recording studio has been put up for sale with Paul Fosh Auctions with a guide price of £266,000-plus. Located in a prime position, the property is approximately 485sqm and includes the two-storey former studio at 184sqm as well as a large yard to the rear.

Debra Bisley, of Paul Fosh Auctions, commented: “Subject to the relevant consents, this property may make an ideal investment for residential housing, AirBnB or student accommodation.

“The property currently has outline planning permission for one pair of semi-detached dwellings. Furthermore, outline planning permission has been granted for two residential flats.”

Possibly also home to tuneful tones in the past of a different nature, a historic church with full planning permission for conversion to a luxury development also went up for auction.

The former All Saints Church in St Thomas dates back to 1845 and contains a memorial with names of some thirty soldiers from the area who were killed in the First World War, plus details of the recipient of a Victoria Cross.

Full planning has been granted for conversion of the church to a five-bedroom, six-bathroom executive home with further planning for a detached dwelling in the adjoining and extensive grounds.
