Chain-free Victorian block split into two flats with off-street parking — ideal for investors..
- Two self-contained two-bed flats; simple re-let layout
- Freehold, chain-free sale
- Rear off-street parking — valuable in Uplands
- Victorian features: bay windows, high ceilings
- Small overall footprint; modest total floor area
- EPCs low (Flat 1 E, Flat 2 D); energy upgrades likely needed
- Area: very deprived with above-average crime statistics
- Dated interiors; property requires modernisation work
A compact mid-terrace building in Uplands currently arranged as two self-contained two-bedroom flats, offered chain-free and as a freehold investment. Both flats provide straightforward layouts — living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom/shower room — making them simple to relet or modernise for improved returns. The property sits within easy walking distance of local shops, pubs, parks and Swansea University, a strong local rental catchment.
Practical benefits include rear off-street parking — a scarce asset in the area — double glazing, mains gas and good mobile/broadband connectivity. The building’s Victorian character (bay windows, high ceilings) gives scope to enhance appeal and rental value with sympathetic refurbishment.
Buyers should note the building is small in overall footprint and in a neighbourhood classified as very deprived with above-average crime; this affects tenant mix and yields. Both flats have modest EPC ratings (Flat 1: E, Flat 2: D) and the property shows signs of dated finishes and partial reliance on room heaters. Solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, so energy and heating upgrades may be needed to meet modern standards.
This is best suited to a hands-on investor or developer wanting a low-complexity project in a proven student/letting location. With work to improve energy efficiency and interior standards the asset could deliver stronger rental income and capital growth in a busy Uplands market.
