Grade II Listed Magor guest house up for sale for £995,000
The Brick House Country Guest House, listed by Christie & Co, is a Grade II Listed property dating back to 1790. The charming residence, which has been owned by the current occupant for an astounding 76 years, is on the market for a guide price of £995,000. According to the estate agent, the guest house was originally built by William Phillips of nearby Whitson Court. (Image: Christie and Co via Rightmove) It has only changed hands twice since then. Originally a farm house, it began offering bed and breakfast services in 1974, a tradition that has continued to this day. The estate agent noted that the property has remained an incredibly popular bed and breakfast, attracting both regular and new guests. Its semi-rural location, just three miles from the M4, has contributed to its enduring success. In addition to the main house, there is a detached bungalow in the grounds which is currently let out on an assured shorthold tenancy (AST), providing further rental income. There is also a partly converted two-storey barn attached to the main house. Once finished, this could offer two bedrooms, a sitting room, and a kitchen. The property is located in Redwick, a peaceful village on the outskirts of Magor, Monmouthshire. It is approximately three miles from Junction 23A of the M4 motorway, providing easy access to Newport, Cardiff, and Bristol. (Image: Christie and Co via Rightmove) The area offers a tranquil rural setting with access to both countryside and urban attractions. These include Magor Square, the Procurator's House, St Mary's Church, Redwick Village, Caldicot Castle & Country Park, and the Gwent Levels. (Image: Christie and Co via Rightmove) The Welsh Coast Path and National Cycle Route also pass close by, providing easy access to the guest house. Inside the property, you enter via a timber-framed, glazed porch into an open plan hall featuring the main staircase. (Image: Christie and Co via Rightmove) This leads to the guest lounge, which boasts a bar area with exposed beams and a feature stone fireplace. There is also a formal sitting room, a guest dining room, a kitchen/breakfast room, a garden room, and an office. (Image: Christie and Co via Rightmove) The main staircase leads to a dual landing housing three ensuite double bedrooms. The second floor offers four bedrooms, two doubles and two singles, with the double bedrooms offering ensuite bathrooms. (Image: Christie and Co via Rightmove) Further accommodation can be accessed from the first floor landing or a separate staircase from the main kitchen. This includes two bedrooms with built-in storage and a separate bathroom. (Image: Christie and Co via Rightmove) Externally, there is off-road parking for numerous vehicles, mature gardens and grounds, and an adjoining three-acre paddock, available via separate negotiation. The gardens, mostly laid to lawn with mature shrub, hedge, and flower borders, wrap around the property. (Image: Christie and Co via Rightmove) An outside terrace makes it perfect for alfresco dining, with views of the countryside and beyond. Included within the freehold sale are two further properties. The first is an attached barn, which is fully wired, plumbed, and plastered, but now requires the second fix for completion. The other is a cottage, which has been let to the current tenant for the last six years on an AST basis. The cottage features a sitting room with central electric fire, a kitchen, a garden room, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. According to the estate agent, this is a fantastic opportunity to be the next custodian of a truly beautiful farmhouse. They noted that the property has a multitude of uses, from continuing the current B&B trade to creating a special family home. With the option to provide extra income via the rental properties or offering multigenerational living opportunities, it's a safe bet for years to come, they added. Coupled with the idyllic countryside location, proximity to major cities and road networks, and having the option to acquire further land, it's a property not to be missed.

ANNE ASHWORTH reveals the benefits of investing in UK firms
To date, the undisputed leaders of the artificial intelligence industrial revolution have been US tech titans like the mighty Microsoft and Nvidia. But also in contention are a group of FTSE 100 firms that are deploying AI to make the maximum use of data for the benefit of grateful customers. These British 'tech-enabled' names include Auto Trader, the £7.2billion online car marketplace, and Experian the £49.9billion credit information group. Also on the British 'tech-enabled' list is the property portal Rightmove on whose app and website the nation spends close to 17billion minutes every year. It makes sense to wager on the Magnificent Seven of tech. But there is also a strong argument for diversifying into the British names making strides in AI. This week, the FTSE 100 has reached a record high. The index could scale further heights, if the recognition grows that Britain is not being left behind in the AI revolution. If you want to take advantage of this disruption, here are some of the shares to back. AUTO TRADER There are 81m visits every month to the Auto Trader website, the largest in the market thanks to its compendious data on every aspect of a new or second-hand vehicle. The company has been dubbed the 'king of the virtual forecourt'. In 2024, the company introduced CoDriver, a range of AI-powered products that make searching easier and adverts look more attractive. Ben Derber, analyst at Rathbones Investment Management, says CoDriver is helping retailers get their adverts live more quickly, leading to consistently high levels of engagement from customers. Auto Trader is seen as a quality company, with its good cash flow and an impressive ROCE (return on capital employed); this is a measure of how a business uses its capital to produce profits. These factors suggest that it is the kind of business that belongs in your portfolio for the long-term. The share price is 835.8p. Analysts have set a target price of 853p, with the most optimistic forecasting a rise to 1040p. But, in the near future, the shares may pause for breath because Auto Trader's ARPR – average revenue per retailer – is disappointing at present. A shortage of used cars means that they are selling faster than before. EXPERIAN Experian moved beyond being just a credit reference agency to become a business that empowers lenders in the UK, Europe, US, Latin America, India and Singapore to make better decisions. Matt Britzman of Hargreaves Lansdown says: 'Experian is a global information services company specialising in data analytics, credit reporting, and identity verification.' But borrowers also want a good deal and Experian is exploiting this opportunity. Britzman adds: 'With financial literacy becoming more widespread, Experian is well-positioned to capitalise, offering tools that empower consumers to manage their credit and financial health more effectively.' As Derber points out, Experian has been using AI for more than a decade, and is now working with generative AI to offer digital assistant services to consumers and banks and finance firms. Nine of the 17 analysts that follow Experian rate the shares – which stand at 4056p – a 'buy'. Recently, Bank of America has raised its target price to 4900p, while Goldman Sachs is even more enthusiastic, setting a target of 5550p. LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE The London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) has hit the headlines this month over a proposed plan to provide 24-hour trading – a result of pressure from small investors who want to buy and sell stocks at all hours, apparently. But the operation of the London bourse, although vital to the UK economy, is a minor activity for LSEG when compared with the selling of financial data to banks, brokers and others. The supply of this information will be vastly increased thanks to a ten-year partnership with Microsoft in which generative AI is playing a crucial role. Matthew Page, manager of the Guinness Global Innovators Fund says that the link with Microsoft gives LSEG 'serious competitive advantage' since it can embed cutting-edge generative AI into its products. Microsoft has a 4 per cent stake in LSEG. This vote of confidence may be one of the reasons why analysts rate the shares a 'buy'. The price is 10,090p, with the most optimistic brokers targeting 12,600p. RELX Until a decade ago Relx (pronounced Rel-ex) was known as Reed Elsevier. The change of name reflected the move from publishing into analytics, for which demand continues to grow – especially when that data is amplified by AI. Relx is a vital source for scientific researchers suffering from information overload. But there is a particular clamour, too, for the legal research tool Lexis+. AI is also accelerating growth at Relx's risk division. This arm of the £70.99billion business caters for companies that want to prevent digital fraud. But Relx is not just about analytics, it is one of the world's top events organisers, running exhibitions and shows in 25 countries. Analysts are positive about Relx's prospects, rating the shares a 'buy' with an average target price of 4428p, against the current 3937p. JP Morgan is even more sanguine about Relx's future, having raised its target price from 4630p to 4890p earlier this month. RIGHTMOVE The British are already obsessed with property. But, as Derber explains, Rightmove is deepening the connection through AI, introducing internal improvements in the speed of the introduction of new features, and supplying such extras as personalised property recommendations. He expects that the £6.1billion company, founded in 2020, will unveil further ways to ensure that we spend even more of our lives on Rightmove. The most popular moment to visit the website or app is 8.59am on Monday morning, as people start work but seek consolation in pictures of desirable residences. Rightmove shares have risen by 21 per cent this year to 780.4p, spurred by hopes that an easing of interest rates will encourage house hunters. Analysts rate shares a 'hold' since future growth is already priced into the stock. But Duncan Green, manager of the Schroder UK Multi-Cap Income Fund, which owns a slice of Rightmove, makes the case for the shares. He considers the company to deliver 'a rare level of efficiency and profitability', while also offering an income through dividends and share buybacks. If AI is making you and your friends look at Rightmove even more than before, consider taking a chance on the shares on the basis that others will be doing the same.

First time buyers warned about four 'hidden' issues to look out for during viewings
Property experts have shared advice on what first time buyers should look out for when viewing properties to unsure you avoid potential future issues and costs Owning you're own home remains a goal for many young people even as affordability continues to be a major challenge in recent years. Despite rising costs, the number of first time buyers has shot up by 19 percent in 2024 according to Lloyds Bank - marking the highest figure in a decade and signifying a resurgence in the market. As demand for first-time buyer properties grow, real estate experts are keen to offer advice on what to look out for during viewings to help avoid potential future issues and costs. The Home Builders Federation revealed that a huge 93.7 percent of new build buyers reported problems such as snags and defects after moving in. Older properties come with their fair share of problems too such as issues with damp which can cost up to £16,000 to fix, the Manchester Evening News reports. Interior expert Johanna Constantinou at Tapi Carpets & Floors and estate agent Rachel Lansdell at Preston Baker have highlighted the 'hidden' home defects that first-time buyers should be aware of to avoid unexpected and costly repairs. Gaps and cracks in flooring may signal underlying issues 'Look out for any small cracks or warping in smooth flooring, whether that's tiles, luxury vinyl or wooden floorboards, as this could be a sign of flooring absorbing excessive moisture and underlying damp problems," Johanna states. "Persistent dampness can cause boards to lift or curl at the edges and may also be linked to leaks from plumbing or poor ventilation." 'Visible gaps between flooring and skirting boards specifically can even be a sign of subsidence, a significant problem that happens when the ground beneath a property shifts or sinks, leading to separation at joins.' Be observant of missing roof tiles Rachel says: "The most expensive fixes to a house are often problems with the roof or structural issues, like inside the walls or chimney." 'While you can't check the current condition of internal structures at an initial house viewing, missing or broken roof tiles can be a giveaway of potential internal damage." "Broken roof tiles can let in rainwater in, allowing moisture to seep into the home's insulation, ceilings, walls, and even electrics, which can lead to rot, mould, and decay. Once a home's internal materials are affected by moisture, repair costs rise steeply.' Ask the age of the boiler 'It's basically impossible to tell if there are plumbing issues when simply viewing a home, so always ask for the boiler age ahead of making decisions," said Rachel. "As a rule of thumb, if the boiler is more than 10 years old or looks outdated, budget for a replacement, which costs around £2,000 to £4,000, and consider asking for a boiler check during your survey.' Check the EPC 'An EPC, or Energy Performance Certificate, is an official document that shows how energy-efficient a home is, based on factors like insulation, heating systems, windows, and how much energy the home uses overall," Rachel says. 'Checking this before purchasing helps buyers to understand likely energy bills, while also including recommendations for improving energy efficiency which can lower these bills and therefore costs in the long term." The experts advise first-time buyers should aways pay for a survey survey before making an offer so you can avoid more hidden complications. 'The biggest red flags that buyers often miss during viewings are hard to see, like structural issues, damp, roof issues and problems with electrics or heating systems, which is why you should always get a homebuyer's survey before committing to a purchase," Rachel advises. "I would also recommend gas and electrical safety checks, too, if you are close to putting in an offer." The experts also advise in investing in energy efficiency and damp proofing once you move in. 'To make your home more valuable overtime and prevent future costs, you should consider investing in high quality roofing and insulation if these are not up to standard already as this will improve energy efficiency overall, lowering bills," says Rachel. "Even more affordable upgrades, like fitting double or tripled glazed windows, will lead to savings.' Johanna added: 'Damp proofing your home will also save future expenses and protect your health. Affordable fixes, like sealing cracks, maintaining drains and gutters to prevent blockage, improving ventilation with extractor fans and replacing damp flooring all make a significant difference, saving you a big bill and a headache (literally and metaphorically).'
