Description

This substantial semi-detached property presents an exciting renovation and investment opportunity in the historic area of Neath Abbey. Occupying four storeys, the house is currently vacant and awaits refurbishment, making it ideal for those looking to add value through conversion. Featuring seven rooms, two kitchens, and two bathrooms, this property has considerable potential for redevelopment. With separate front, side, and rear entrances, it could be transformed into three self-contained apartments, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. The expansive layout provides flexibility for various configurations to maximize rental income or resale value. The overgrown rear garden offers a blank canvas for landscaping or potential outdoor amenities. Notably, side access enhances the usability of the outdoor space and overall accessibility of the property. Located in Neath Abbey, known for its remarkable Cistercian monastery ruins—historically recognized as one of the most significant abbeys in Wales—this area is rich with cultural heritage. The proximity to these historical sites not only adds charm but can potentially attract interest from future tenants or buyers seeking a blend of history and modern living. The vendor has assured that the property will be cleared before completion, facilitating a smooth transition for new owners. With its prime location and abundant renovation possibilities, this property stands out as a promising investment venture in a notable community.
