Set within Abercanaid, this Grade II listed mid-terrace cottage blends original Victorian character with practical living space. The house offers an open-plan living/kitchen, a ground-floor utility and shower room, and a bright double bedroom upstairs — compact living made comfortable. A small front courtyard and private rear garden with a shed extend the living space outdoors.
Important practical details are clear: the property is listed, which will restrict alterations and may complicate refurbishment. The building’s stone walls likely lack modern insulation and the roof shows potential issues, so buyers should budget for careful, specialist repairs. Double glazing is fitted but installation date is unknown; the heating is a modern smart boiler with radiators on mains gas.
This home suits a buyer seeking period character and renovation potential—first-time buyers, downsizers or investors wanting a distinctive rental in a central town location. The area has fast broadband and convenient local amenities, but note the neighbourhood records above-average crime and very high deprivation indices. Flood risk is low and tenure is freehold.
Viewings are recommended for anyone valuing original features and a compact, characterful property, and who understands the extra costs and regulatory steps that come with owning a listed building.
