This mid-20th-century three-bedroom terraced house offers compact, practical family living in a convenient Pontypool location. The layout includes a generous lounge/diner, a well-appointed kitchen and a low-maintenance rear garden — good for small families or commuters wanting straightforward space near local schools and amenities.
Transport links are a clear strength: the A4042 and nearby train station provide easy access across South Wales, and Pontypool town centre with shops and a Tesco is just over a mile away. Pontypool Park and local recreation facilities are within easy reach for weekend family activities.
There are important realities to note. The property sits in a very deprived area with a very high local crime level; buyers should factor local context into their decision. The house is relatively small (724 sq ft) and was built in the 1950s–60s as a system-built mid-terrace with external insulation — a structural survey is recommended to check construction details and insulation performance.
Cosmetically the exterior needs updating and the garden is small but manageable. Services appear to be mains gas with boiler/radiators and double glazing of unknown installation date. This home suits buyers seeking an affordable family base with scope to modernise, or investors aware of the neighbourhood profile and local rental demand.
