- Gas central heating and double glazing already installed
- Compact size ~593 sq ft, limited internal space

A compact first-floor flat in Taibach offered as a straightforward buy-to-let. The layout can work as one or two bedrooms with one or two reception rooms, plus a fitted kitchen and separate bathroom, and an en-suite shower room. Gas central heating and double glazing are already in place, and the vendor indicates achievable rent around £600 pcm.
The building is an older mid-terrace with sandstone/limestone walls and no assumed wall insulation; the property is reasonably well maintained but small at about 593 sq ft. EPC C and council tax band A reflect modest running costs, but the lack of wall insulation may be a target for energy improvements and costs over time.
This is a leasehold flat in a very deprived area with above-average crime rates, so suitability is strongest for investors seeking rental income rather than owner-occupiers wanting long-term quiet residential streets. Proximity to shops, transport links and local amenities supports tenant demand, and the flat’s condition means limited immediate works but scope for modest upgrades to increase rent or capital value.
Important practical points: leasehold tenure, compact accommodation, and the surrounding area's socioeconomic profile. Buyers should check lease length and service charges, and consider insulation or modernization works if aiming to improve energy performance or long-term appeal.
