Description

This property presents a compelling opportunity for investors looking to capitalize on its transformation potential. Previously utilized as a three-storey retail unit, the building has been stripped back to its original bare brick condition and comes with granted planning permission for conversion into three self-contained apartments (1 two-bedroom and 2 one-bedroom units), along with designated parking. Located in the sought-after village of Ystalyfera, it boasts excellent transport links to the M4 motorway, making travel to Swansea or Cardiff convenient. The property is also within proximity to the stunning landscapes of Brecon Beacons National Park and the Black Mountains, adding further appeal for future tenants. The planning application (Ref No. P2021/0469) allows for a comprehensive redevelopment involving several extensions, including two storey flat-roofed extensions and additional amenities such as bicycle storage and parking facilities. Given its current state and necessary updates, this property requires renovation work before it can realize its full potential as residential units.
