Grade II listed mid-terrace cottage with rural views
Freehold two-bedroom property with mains gas heating
Requires full renovation and modernisation throughout
Sandstone/limestone walls assumed uninsulated, energy upgrades needed
Double glazing fitted post-2002, single bathroom and separate shower
Small courtyard plot, limited external space
No flood risk; council tax band B (low)
Located near Margam Country Park and Port Talbot transport links
A Grade II listed two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage set against open Welsh countryside, offered freehold. The property sits in a quiet village location with countryside views and close access to Margam Country Park and Port Talbot. Double glazing was installed after 2002 and the home benefits from mains gas central heating and very low local crime.
The house requires full renovation throughout and will demand specialist listed-building consent for many changes. Original sandstone or limestone walls are likely uninsulated, so upgrading thermal performance and services will be necessary. The existing 1970s kitchen is dated and the interior provides a blank canvas for reconfiguration and modernisation.
Practical positives include a small courtyard with rural outlook, good mobile signal and fast broadband—useful for remote working or leisure. There is no flood risk and council tax sits in band B, keeping running costs comparatively low. Buyers should factor in listed-status constraints and likely additional build costs when assessing value and feasibility.
