Set on a quiet side street in Treherbert, this two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offers solid period bones and clear potential for a practical first home or buy-to-let. The house benefits from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating, and its generous lounge/diner and sizable kitchen give scope for reconfiguring the layout — it was previously three bedrooms. Outdoor enthusiasts will value nearby hills and direct access to local transport and schools.
The property requires renovation throughout: modernisation of finishes, possible insulation work to the original stone walls, and attention to the rear garden and outbuilding. The current shower room and kitchen are serviceable but dated; refurbishing these rooms would significantly improve comfort and value. Total internal area is about 776 sq ft, with a small rear garden and lane access.
This home suits a practical first-time buyer willing to take on a project or a landlord seeking a refurbishment opportunity in an affordable price band. Be realistic about likely upgrade costs to bring the property to modern standards, especially insulating solid walls and refreshing electrics or heating if needed. Early viewing will show the potential for a comfortable, characterful home close to amenities and outdoor recreation.
