Detached bungalow with enclosed garden and renovation potential — ideal for downsizers seeking value..
Detached two-bedroom bungalow on raised plot with view
Set on a raised plot overlooking Port Talbot, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers single-level living with genuine value for buyers wanting to downsize or refurbish. The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast space, and a tiered rear garden with useful storage sheds. The home is compact (approximately 625 sq ft) and solidly constructed mid-20th century accommodation.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and freehold tenure. The property sits in a very low-crime area with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and there is no flooding risk. Council tax is described as cheap, adding to the running-cost advantages.
The bungalow does require updating: cosmetic and likely thermal improvements are needed, and the cavity walls appear to have no insulation as built. The double glazing is older and other systems may also need upgrading. Buyers should budget for renovation works to modernise heating efficiency and internal finishes.
This is a straightforward purchase for a downsizer, renovator, or investor seeking a modest detached home with an enclosed garden and elevated outlook. The local area is classified as having high deprivation, which may affect long-term resale values and surrounding amenities; however, the bungalow’s peaceful position, low crime and compact, adaptable layout make it a practical option for those prioritising single-storey living and affordability.
