This larger-than-average Victorian semi-detached home sits in an elevated position on Pleasant View, offering open valley views from the bay-windowed lounge. The house provides four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a gated rear with a garage — practical for a family, commuter or investor. Recent renewals to the gas boiler and electrics (within the last three years) and uPVC double glazing reduce immediate major-cost risks.
Internally the rooms are generous for the overall footprint (approx. 816 sq ft) with a spacious lounge/diner and a good-sized kitchen. The property retains period character (stained-glass entrance, coving, bay window) and has potential to improve value with cosmetic updating and landscaping of the stepped gardens and patio.
Location is a key asset: local schools, shops and Troedyrhiw train station are within walking distance, with links to Merthyr and Cardiff and nearby outdoor attractions including Bike Park Wales. Practical downsides to consider are the Energy Rating E, slow broadband speeds, and the house being in a very deprived local authority area — factors that can affect running costs and resale in the short term.
Overall this Freehold semi-detached offers solid family accommodation with investment potential (short-term let/airbnb possible given location and garage), but will reward buyers willing to carry out cosmetic works, garden landscaping and energy improvements.
