Summary - YNYSWEN COTTAGES 1 BRECON ROAD PENYCAE SWANSEA SA9 1YP
2 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Single-level home with garden, garage and easy access to Brecon Beacons.
Two bedrooms, single-storey living, 732 sq ft
Set on the edge of the Brecon Beacons, this two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers single-level living with pleasant rural views and easy access to local amenities. The house includes a modern bathroom, an enclosed landscaped rear garden and off-street parking with a garage and driveway — practical features for downsizers seeking convenience and low-maintenance outdoor space.
Internal space is compact but well-presented, with 732 sq ft laid out across ground-floor accommodation. The property benefits from double glazing and oil-fired central heating with a boiler and radiators. Broadband and mobile signal are both good, making the home suitable for those who occasionally work from home or value reliable connectivity in a rural setting.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the home dates from the mid-20th century and has cavity walls assumed to lack insulation, the main heating fuel is oil (not a community supply), and the EPC is rated E (44). The local area shows signs of economic deprivation, though the property itself is freehold and council tax band is relatively low (B).
Overall, this bungalow will suit couples or retirees seeking a peaceful, single-storey home near nature with scope to improve energy performance. It’s a straightforward purchase for someone who values location, outdoor space and a compact, manageable home, and who is comfortable addressing or budgeting for insulation and heating upgrades where desired.
