A compact one-bedroom mid-terrace in Aberdare offering an affordable freehold home or rental opportunity close to the town centre. The property benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and very low council tax (Band A), keeping running costs down for first-time buyers or landlords.
Rooms are a practical size across two storeys: entrance reception room, kitchen, double bedroom and a bathroom totalling about 474 sq ft. The house dates from c.1900–1929 and has double glazing installed before 2002, mains gas boiler and radiators in place. For buyers seeking an income property, the town-centre location and wide range of nearby amenities make it straightforward to let.
There are also clear drawbacks to consider. The area is classified as very deprived with very high local crime rates; the plot is very small and the stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated, which, together with an EPC rating of D, points to potential energy-efficiency work. The interior shows signs of age and some dated fittings — modernization or a light refurbishment would improve comfort and long-term value.
Prospective purchasers are advised to arrange a survey and checks on services before exchange, as appliances and services have not been tested. This property is best suited to buyers prepared to accept an urban, compact home or to investors seeking an affordable starter unit in a busy town location.
