This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Arennig Road offers an accessible, affordable entry into Swansea property ownership. At around 659 sq ft it provides practical living with an open-plan lounge/dining room and a well-equipped kitchen — a straightforward layout that suits first-time buyers or young families.
The property is freehold and benefits from off-street parking, mains gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002). Constructed in the mid-20th century, the house has external insulation and cavity walls, which help with energy efficiency, and the room sizes are useable for everyday family life.
Location is a key strength: local schools, shops and regular bus links are within easy reach. The area has excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, useful for working from home or streaming. At the asking price this house represents an attainable purchase with scope to add value through targeted improvements.
Buyers should note the wider neighbourhood is very deprived with high local crime rates; prospective purchasers should factor this into decision-making and security considerations. Some external elements and the paved driveway appear dated and may need maintenance or updating. Measurements and services have not been independently tested, so a survey is recommended before committing.
