A HUGE Grade II-listed house has hit the market for just £50,000 - but there’s a major catch.
The property, in Neath Port Talbot, which is billed as a “detached home” is actually a run-down chapel.

Photos show the stunning building with all its original features.
The property also comes with a front and side courtyard and it boasts gallery seating to three sides which lead to a vestry.
Tens of wooden pews line the bottom floor which upstairs houses a choir area.
However, the property needs alot of work - with pictures showing peeling paint and what appears to be stacks of roof tiles.
The listing reads: “A rare opportunity to acquire a Grade 2 listed Chapel, full of charm andcharacter with some fantastic original features, including cast iron friezes, wood panelling, organ and a baptistery under the set fawr.
“Total renovation works are needed whilst offering enormous potential to develop into a variety of potential uses.
“Situated in a convenient location of Briton Ferry for easy access to schools, shops, bus station, train station and excellent links to the M4 Motorway.”
