Summary - 37, Leslie Street, PORT TALBOT SA12 6EW
3 bed 2 bath Terraced
No chain Victorian terrace with garden — needs updating, strong value potential..
Three bedrooms across two floors, 819 sq ft
A three-bedroom mid-terrace with no onward chain, this Victorian home offers straightforward access to Port Talbot and strong scope for value improvement. The layout spans two floors with an open-plan lounge/diner, kitchen, separate utility and two ground-floor bathrooms—useful for flexible living or rental layouts. A small enclosed rear garden provides outdoor space, while UPVC double glazing and a mains gas combi boiler deliver basic energy comfort.
The property requires modernisation throughout: cosmetic updating, likely kitchen and bathroom renewal and possible insulation improvements to the original stone walls. Rooms are modest in scale, reflecting the property's era and footprint (approximately 819 sq ft), so be prepared for compact bedroom and living spaces. EPC rating D and Council Tax Band B are reasonable starting points, but buyers should factor in refurbishment costs.
Location and context are important: the house sits in a very deprived area with higher-than-average local crime and challenged community indicators. That factors into long-term resale and rental expectations but also keeps the purchase price low, offering appeal to first-time buyers seeking an affordable starter home or investors targeting renovation-led uplift.
This freehold home is best suited to a buyer comfortable with a project: someone wanting an affordable entry into the market who can prioritise essential repairs and cosmetic work to realise the property's potential.
