Chain-free end-terrace with Victorian stone facade
A compact two-bedroom end-terraced house on Gaen Street offered chain-free and ready for refurbishment. The property retains a Victorian stone facade and provides a practical layout with a large lounge-diner, fitted kitchen, ground-floor shower room plus separate WC, first-floor bathroom and a small rear garden. Mains gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of D mean basic services are in place.
This house suits a first-time buyer or investor willing to modernise. The solid traditional construction and modest room count give clear scope to add value through kitchen and bathroom upgrades, replacement joinery and redecoration. Nearby road links to the A465 and M4, plus a rail link to Cardiff from Llanhilleth, help with commuting; open countryside and valley walks are close by.
Be upfront about what’s needed: the property requires internal updating throughout and broadband speeds are slow. The area has above-average crime and is in a very deprived ward, and kerbside parking is constrained by the sloping street. The small garden and limited external amenity reflect the terrace setting but still provide useful outdoor space.
If you’re buying to live or to let, this freehold, no-chain opportunity offers an affordable entry to the market with straightforward improvement potential. Obtain a full internal inspection, property measurements and up-to-date photos before committing to confirm scope and costs of renovation.
