Set on an elevated position overlooking the Garw Valley, this two-bedroom mid-terrace combines original stone character with a fully modernised interior. The layout suits first-time buyers seeking a compact, move-in-ready home with useful outdoor space and a detached garage for parking, storage or workshop use.
The ground floor offers a front living room and a fitted kitchen/dining area; upstairs are two bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom. Double glazing and a gas boiler with radiators provide modern comfort, while large windows capture countryside views and natural light.
Outside, a tiered rear garden and lane-access detached garage extend usable space — rare for this property type — and offer scope for mild landscaping or hobby gardening. Practical benefits include easy access to the M4 (about seven miles) and nearby shops, primary school, and leisure facilities.
Notable constraints that buyers should factor in: broadband speeds are slow, the local area is in a very deprived classification, and the original stone walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation. The plot is small and the property is an older Victorian-built mid-terrace, so while newly renovated, some buyers may prefer further energy-efficiency upgrades.
Overall, this property presents straightforward value for a first-time buyer who wants a ready-to-live-in home with outdoor space and a garage, and who is comfortable addressing future insulation or connectivity improvements.
