It’s an historic cottage in Wales, a listed building, that will make an ideal, tiny off-grid home for someone who is very handy with DIY. The fixer-upper £10,000 UK pounds, about $13,000 at today’s rates, and despite its downtown location it truly has no Utility power or water. This is very rare in the UK, because the European Union has done its best to bring Utility power to every nook and cranny.
The one room building in Menai Bridge, with a view of the local Suspension Bridge, is about the size of three king-size beds. But that is plenty of room if you are clever – put your bed on a platform, and underneath it could be your well, either fed from a spring if you are lucky , or else from the roof into an underground tank you could dig easily,
Menai Bridge is a small town and community on the Isle of Anglesey in north-west Wales. It overlooks the Menai Strait and lies by the Menai Suspension Bridge, built in 1826 by Thomas Telford, just over the water from Bangor. Guess the average price for a home in this delightful part of Wales?…..Over £230,000 ($300,000).
The white walled house actually has an electricity supply at the moment – a cable from a next door property – but that will be cut off upon sale.
No matter. You can run a few solar panels from the roof, feeding into a small car battery. A ground source heat pump will warm your cockles. The listed building status might cause a few headaches however as the panels will have to be cunningly disguised, or placed temporarily each day.
