A compact detached bungalow in Neath offering clear investor or first-time buyer potential. The property is modest in size (approx. 583 sq ft) with two bedrooms, one bathroom and vacant possession, allowing immediate access for refurbishment or occupation.
Key positives include a garage, front and rear gardens with side access, an outbuilding and potential to extend at the rear subject to planning consent. The house has double glazing and gas central heating (both untested) and sits in a convenient location with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and good road and rail links to the M4 corridor.
Important considerations: the home is small and dated and will need updating to reach rental or owner-occupier standards; the surrounding area is described as very deprived which can affect resale values and lettability. The property will be sold at online auction and is offered freehold, so prospective buyers should prepare for auction terms, budget for repairs and verify planning scope before committing.
For investors the vendor’s guide suggests a re-let figure of about £825 pcm once refurbished, but purchasers should confirm rental estimates and factor in renovation costs. For buyers seeking a low-maintenance bungalow with scope, this is a straightforward canvas to modernise and, with planning approval, modestly extend to increase living space and value.
