This two-bedroom Victorian terraced house on Dowlais Street offers an affordable entry into Aberdare’s housing market. With generous living space, a large rear garden and freehold tenure, it suits first-time buyers seeking room to grow or investors after a straightforward rental property in a well-connected town.
The interior provides an open-plan lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and family bathroom; the property requires some modernisation to reach its potential. A recent roof on the extension reduces immediate major-cost risk, but buyers should allow budget for cosmetic upgrades and possible services checks. EPC currently not provided.
Location is a practical strong point: fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and regular rail and bus links to Cardiff and local centres. Local amenities, schools and retail parks are within easy reach. Be frank about the area — it is a very deprived, high-crime ward of blue-collar terraces, which affects resale and rental prospects but is reflected in the asking price.
For a buyer prepared to invest time and modest renovation, this property delivers solid space, a private garden and accessible transport links. For investors, expected affordability and location offer clear lettable potential; for first-time buyers, it’s a liveable home with scope to personalise and add value.
