Abstract: A space is said to be power-homogeneous if some power of it is homogeneous. We prove that if a Hausdorff space $X$ of point-countable type is power-homogeneous, then, for every infinite cardinal $\tau $, the set of points at which $X$ has a base of cardinality not greater than $\tau $, is closed in $X$. Every power-homogeneous linearly ordered topological space also has this property. Further, if a linearly ordered space $X$ of point-countable type is power-homogeneous, then $X$ is first countable.
