Along a busy valleys road just outside the Rhondda Cynon Taf town of Pontypridd, this end of terrace was not a house that instantly grabbed Martin Roberts when he arrived for a tour as presenter of BBC's popular daytime property show, Homes Under The Hammer.
It looked tired and it looked small - but if Martin has learnt anything about auction properties after presenting the show for over 17 years, it is that you should never judge a property by its façade.
Opening the front door, it was certainly tired and damp problems could be added to the description too, but the period property actually opened up into a Tardis terrace, with two good sized reception rooms, kitchen and utility room on the ground floor and a flat garden.
