Large freehold industrial land with strategic road links, sold in part or whole.
Freehold land from 1.30 ha (3.21 acres), for sale part or whole
A substantial freehold landholding at the former Llynfi Power Station offers a rare development opportunity close to main transport routes. The overall site extends to about 24.37 hectares (60.23 acres) gross, with parts available to buy in whole or in parcels from 1.30 ha (3.21 acres). The level ground, riverside boundary and direct frontage onto the A4063 make the land suitable for a range of industrial, warehousing or other commercial uses, subject to planning consent.
Practical advantages include proximity to J36 of the M4 (c.4.5 miles) and Bridgend (c.6.5 miles), an on-site substation (note: the substation is not within the title), and existing vehicular access via a bridge over the railway. The site adjoins existing industrial premises, which can support future occupier demand. There is no identified flood risk across the holding.
Material negatives and constraints are set out plainly: the land is unserviced, broadband speeds are very slow, and parts of the site contain waste wood and denser vegetation needing clearance. The former planning permission for a 25MW biomass power station has lapsed, so any similar scheme would require fresh applications. The area records high crime levels and is in a very deprived local area classification, which may affect certain uses and funding options.
This is a long‑term, hands‑on development plot for buyers or investors comfortable with securing planning, arranging services and undertaking site clearance. For the right party it offers scale, road links and flexibility; for others the remediation, infrastructure and socio-economic constraints will be significant considerations.
