Freehold Victorian mid-terrace with two double bedrooms
This mid-terrace Victorian house offers a compact, well-presented two-bedroom layout ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The open-plan living/dining room and a fitted kitchen make efficient use of the 604 sq ft footprint, while a low-maintenance rear garden adds outdoor space. Council Tax Band B keeps running costs moderate.
The property sits close to Barry town centre, shops, schools and the train station, with easy access to the M4 corridor — useful for commuters. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators; new front windows and a composite front door have already been installed.
Important negatives are factual: the house is small and sits in a very deprived area with above-average local crime levels. The original stone/brick walls are assumed to lack insulation, and the double glazing dates from before 2002, so further energy efficiency improvements may be needed. On-street parking is likely limited.
Overall this is a practical, affordable entry-level purchase with clear scope to improve energy performance and add value. Buyers should arrange their own surveys and checks to confirm services and structure before committing.
