This ground-floor two-bedroom flat in Cimla, Neath, offers a straightforward first purchase or buy-to-let opportunity. Recently fitted external wall insulation (EWI) rendering refreshes the exterior and helps thermal performance; inside the accommodation is presented as newly renovated with a lounge, kitchen and modern shower room. The layout and 754 sq ft footprint suit buyers wanting a simple, low-maintenance home or a rental asset with immediate letting potential.
Outside, off-street parking and gardens to the front, side and rear are unusual extras for a flat at this price point, providing private outdoor space and room for gardening or storage. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators, and the property has double glazing. Council tax is described as very cheap, and running costs are helped by recent upgrades.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property is leasehold with a ground rent of £10 and a below-average service charge of £128. The wider area is classified as outer-city hardship with very deprived indicators locally; crime levels are average. Constructed in the late 1960s–1970s, the building is mid-20th century in style — solid but not period — and some buyers may want to budget for ongoing maintenance or future internal updates despite the recent external work.
For first-time buyers and investors seeking a competitively priced entry into Neath (postcode SA11 3PU), this flat balances low running costs and outdoor space against its location and tenure. It is ready to occupy or rent immediately, but buyers prioritising quiet, affluent neighbourhoods or long-term capital-growth hotspots should consider the local socioeconomic profile before committing.
