This two-bedroom end-of-terrace on Colwyn Avenue offers a straightforward, affordable entry into Swansea property ownership or a compact buy-to-let prospect. The house spans about 770 sq ft, with a bright lounge, fitted kitchen opening to an enclosed rear garden, and two upstairs bedrooms. Practical features include double glazing (post-2002), mains gas boiler and radiators, and fast broadband availability.
The plot is a decent size for the area and the property is freehold, making it appealing to first-time buyers or investors planning light refurbishment. Built in the mid-20th century, the home sits in an established residential neighbourhood with nearby bus links, schools and local amenities.
Important cautions: the area is classified as very deprived with a high local crime rate. The cavity walls are recorded with no insulation (assumed), so improvement to thermal efficiency may be needed. The property will be sold at auction using the Modern Method of Auction — the buyer must pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) and purchase a Buyer Information Pack (£349). Review these auction terms and any mortgage implications before bidding.
For buyers looking to add value, straightforward upgrades (insulation, cosmetic updating, possible kitchen/bathroom enhancements) could improve comfort and rental or resale potential. The house’s size and garden make it a practical, budget-conscious option close to Swansea city amenities.
