Maes Yr Haf, Llansamlet, Swansea

This three-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in Llansamlet presents a unique opportunity for buyers looking for a project. Priced at £200,000, the asking figure is above local benchmarks at £295/sqf compared to the local average of £226/sqf, which could limit the value proposition. While the property requires modernisation, it sits on a generous plot with a large garden and offers potential for significant transformation to meet individual tastes.

The interior, while dated, allows for a blank canvas to create a comfortable family home. The kitchen and living areas reflect the need for updating, but this also means buyers can tailor the renovation to their preferences. With the added convenience of off-road parking and accessibility features, this property is well-positioned close to local amenities and transport links, making it a compelling option for those willing to invest in its future.

The score stays cautious where the quoted refurb range (£60,000) on top of the asking price brings all-in exposure close to £260,000, about 41% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size. That is why the overall grade stays low; we have not forecast value after improvement.
