Set back on a quiet residential crescent, this three-bedroom semi-detached dormer bungalow offers practical family living across two floors. The main living room benefits from natural light and a fireplace; two first-floor bedrooms and a ground-floor bedroom give flexible sleeping arrangements. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators, and the property has double glazing and an EPC rating of C.
Outside, there is off-road parking plus a garage and a decent enclosed rear garden — useful for children, pets or vegetable beds. The plot size is generous compared with the overall internal floor area, so there is scope to extend or reconfigure (subject to planning) to add value and additional living space. Council tax band C keeps ongoing costs relatively affordable.
Buyers should be aware the house is a smaller property overall (around 582 sq ft) and was built in the late 1960s–1970s. Some internal areas show dated decor and will suit buyers prepared to modernise. Walls are cavity as built with no known added insulation and the double glazing install date is unknown, which could mean improvement work to increase comfort and efficiency.
This home suits first-time buyers or small families seeking an affordable, well-located property with development potential in a quiet part of Bridgend. With low local crime, good broadband and strong mobile signal, it’s practical for everyday life while offering realistic scope to personalise and improve.
