Summary - 39 Herbert Street, Blaengarw CF32 8AF
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Spacious three-bedroom home near schools and countryside walks.
Three storeys with valley views to the rear
Bright kitchen/diner with rear garden and lane access
Three good-sized bedrooms, one modern shower room
Freehold; double glazing installed post-2002
Mains gas boiler and radiators, fast broadband
Small plot and compact overall footprint
Very deprived area — possible impact on value growth
Likely need for insulation and cosmetic modernisation
Set over three storeys, this Victorian mid-terrace offers practical family living with open valley views to the rear. The lower level has a bright kitchen/diner with garden access and a modern shower room, while the main floor provides two well-proportioned reception rooms. Three good-sized bedrooms sit on the top floor, making the layout flexible for family use or a buy-to-let conversion.
The house is freehold, double-glazed (post-2002) and heated by a mains gas boiler with radiators. Broadband speeds are fast and there is rear lane access — useful for storage or occasional parking. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low, and the property is eight miles from the M4 with local schools, shops and countryside walks on the doorstep.
Notable practical points: the building dates from c.1900–1929 and external walls are assumed to have no insulation, so further thermal upgrades could be needed. The plot is small and the area is described as very deprived, which may affect future house-price growth. Overall the house is liveable but would benefit from targeted modernisation to maximise comfort and rental or resale value.
