If you're renovating a property from dated to desirable to make a profit because that is your job, most people would advise you to stay neutral, with waves of magnolia or shades of grey the most popular options to appeal to the most buyers as possible.
Maybe that's why when developer Alex Godding decided to hunt down a deep and vibrant blue for the facade of his new property purchase, people were shocked and thought it was a bad idea, but he had fallen in love with an instantly recognisable coastal house and wanted to bring that vibe to this Swansea terrace.
Alex says: "I drive through Aberaeron quite regularly and there is a dark blue house on the main road called Awelon. I took a picture of the house one day and decided that was the colour I wanted for Ceri Road. When I told people I was going to paint the house dark blue everyone grimaced and thought I was nuts."
