Description

This detached two-storey commercial building, formerly a place of worship, has successfully transitioned into a functional administrative space currently housing an independent dental practice. The property has been partially reconfigured, featuring an entrance foyer and reception area on the ground floor alongside five office rooms. These offices are complemented by accessible restroom facilities. The first floor includes a private office, a larger meeting room, additional restroom facilities, and a staff kitchen. The interior has undergone renovations that elevate its appeal, showcasing quality finishes such as carpeted flooring, suspended ceilings outfitted with CAT II modular lighting, and safety features like a fully integrated fire alarm system and intruder alarm. While the property is currently suited for its purpose as office space, it holds considerable potential for further transformation into various alternative uses—subject to obtaining the necessary statutory consents. Strategically located in the heart of Neath Town Centre, the building benefits from high visibility and accessibility. Its proximity to Arthur Street positions it near one of the primary routes connecting the town center with surrounding areas (notably London Road).

The property's rateable value stands at £11,500 as per the latest information available from the Valuation Office Agency (VOA), which may offer advantageous rates relief opportunities for small businesses based on their specific evaluations.
