Chain-free three-bed terrace close to beaches, park and good schools; ideal for families..
No onward chain; long 777-year lease
This Edwardian mid-terrace in Barry’s West End offers practical family living with no onward chain and a long lease (777 years). The house features a large open-plan lounge/diner and a versatile kitchen opening to a reception/bar — a useful layout for everyday family life and informal entertaining. An enclosed, low-maintenance rear garden and small forecourt front add outdoor space without heavy upkeep.
The property sits close to beaches and Porthkerry Park and falls within the Romilly Primary and Whitmore High School catchments, making it well placed for families. Practical conveniences include mains gas heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for modern working routines.
Be realistic about updating: internal decor is dated in places, and the property is of solid brick construction with no known cavity insulation, so energy-efficiency improvements could be beneficial (EPC D67). There is a single ground-floor bathroom and on-street parking only. Local area indicators show higher-than-average crime and significant deprivation in the neighbourhood; prospective buyers should weigh these local factors alongside the home’s strengths.
Overall this is a straightforward, chain-free period terrace that suits a family or a buyer seeking a manageable refurbishment project close to coast and parkland. The long lease and nominal ground rent make the tenure simple, while the open internal plan and outdoor space give clear scope to personalise and modernise.
