Summary - May Bank, Vaughan Terrace CF45 3TF
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable chain-free starter home with character and improvement potential.
Three bedrooms with a single family bathroom
A compact three-bedroom Victorian terrace in Penrhiwceiber, offered with vacant possession and no onward chain — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking an affordable starter home. The lounge has period stonework, an arched wooden internal door and a marble-effect fireplace with a log burner, creating a cosy living space for colder months. The kitchen-dining area includes modern mink gloss units, marble-style worktops and a Belfast sink, giving good everyday practicality.
Upstairs provides three modest bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Bedroom 1 has the unusual benefit of a uPVC door to the outside, handy for fresh air or direct outdoor access. Outside space is limited: a perspex-roofed wood store, two small storage sheds and rear lane access, with street parking to the front.
Important practical points: the house dates from c.1900–1929 with granite/whinstone walls and no confirmed cavity insulation, so buyers should expect potential upgrading for thermal efficiency and possibly an older heating system despite mains gas boiler and radiators. The property sits in a very deprived local area of blue-collar terraces, with average local crime and limited plot size — factors to weigh against the low asking price.
This home suits someone wanting an inexpensive entry into homeownership who is prepared to carry out targeted improvements (insulation, cosmetic updates). Its village setting gives ready access to local shops, GP, primary schools and the train station, plus quick links to the A470 for commuters.
