A uniquely designed and deceptively spacious mid-terraced period family home, quietly positioned within a sought-after residential area on the periphery of Neath town centre. Owned by the same family for over sixty years, this characterful property offers generous accommodation, charming original features and exciting scope for modernisation, with further potential for conversion into two flats (subject to the necessary planning consent). Offered for sale with no ongoing chain, the property represents an ideal opportunity for developers, investors or purchasers seeking to create a bespoke home.
The property enjoys a distinctive front aspect, featuring two solid wood external doors which historically formed part of a horse and carriage coach entrance to the rear of neighbouring properties. The principal entrance is via an ornate stained glass panel front door, opening into a welcoming entrance hallway finished with fitted carpet flooring. From here, there is access to both reception rooms, the galley kitchen and a fixed staircase rising to the first-floor accommodation.
The front reception room is a light and well-proportioned space, benefiting from a large wood-framed window to the front elevation, fitted carpet flooring and an attractive Art Deco style focal feature fireplace. The rear reception room enjoys a large wood-framed window with far-reaching views, along with fitted carpet flooring and a modern sandstone feature fireplace, making it a versatile living or dining area.
The galley kitchen is fitted with a matching range of base and wall-mounted units, with a stainless steel sink unit positioned beneath a rear wood-framed window. The room features ceramic tiled flooring, space for two appliances and a free-standing cooker, while retaining its original charm with an Aga stove situated adjacent to the rear access door. A further doorway from the kitchen leads into a useful boot room/lobby, which also serves as a secondary front entrance to the property. This practical space benefits from power and heating, making it ideal for additional white goods, storage or everyday household use.
To the first floor, a central landing provides access to three well-proportioned double bedrooms and the family bathroom. All bedrooms feature large wood-framed windows and fitted carpet flooring, with the second and third bedrooms further benefiting from built-in cupboard storage. The bathroom is fitted with a coloured Art Deco-inspired three-piece suite, comprising a solid cast-iron bath, pedestal wash hand basin and low-level WC. The room also benefits from a UPVC double-glazed window and an airing cupboard housing the original copper immersion hot water tank.
Externally, the property boasts an enclosed rear garden enjoying scenic views and arranged over two tiers. The upper level offers a generous, level concrete patio area, ideal for seating and entertaining, with steps leading down to a lower garden area laid mainly to lawn and bordered by raised plant beds.
Conveniently located within walking distance of local schools, Neath town centre and picturesque canal-side walks, this spacious and characterful home is in need of modernisation but offers exceptional potential. An ideal purchase for property developers, investors or buyers seeking a project, the property is available to purchase with no ongoing chain.
