Summary - 2 Alexander House, Hunter Street CF63 2JA
2 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Spacious two-bedroom ground-floor apartment near transport and coastal amenities.
No onward chain, ready to occupy
Set within a stone-built Victorian block on Hunter Street, this ground-floor flat offers practical, low-maintenance living with immediate availability and no onward chain. The apartment features a large open-plan kitchen/living area, two double bedrooms and a separate utility/store — a useful extra for apartment owners. A small communal garden and on-street parking are available nearby.
This home suits first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a well-connected town-centre base. Travel links are strong, with Barry and Barry Docks stations close by and easy road access to the A4050, A4232 and M4 for commutes into Cardiff. Local shops, cafés and coastal amenities at Barry Island are within easy reach.
Be aware of a few material points: the property is leasehold (long lease remaining of c.817 years) with an annual service charge of £720 and no ground rent; heating is by electric room heaters rather than central heating; the stone walls are assumed uninsulated which may affect running costs and thermal comfort. The building has double glazing installed post-2002 and an EPC rated D with scope to improve.
The location offers clear advantages — convenience, transport and coastal access — but also some challenges: the immediate area records higher crime levels and wider deprivation indicators. Buyers should factor potential energy and heating costs, and consider modest updating to increase comfort and long-term value.
