This mid-terraced, freehold home offers a straightforward, affordable entry to Neath town centre living. The house has two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a compact enclosed rear garden — practical for first-time buyers wanting a manageable footprint close to shops and transport.
The property is chain free and sits within walking distance of local amenities and transport links. Internally the kitchen and bathroom appear recently updated, and double glazing is installed, but many elements remain typical of an early-20th-century terrace and will benefit from further updating to improve comfort and energy efficiency.
Buyers should note the area scores high for crime and very high for deprivation; the property is best suited to someone prepared to invest time or money to modernise, or an investor seeking a lettable central location. Heating currently relies on room heaters with mains gas present — consider upgrading heating and insulation for lower running costs.
Overall this is a practical, affordable purchase for a first-time buyer or investor looking for a compact, centrally located property with scope to add value through refurbishment.
