Property Address: Ena Avenue, Neath

Property Description: Introducing a spacious family home located in the heart of Neath, Neath Port Talbot, on a highly sought-after street. This property presents a fantastic investment opportunity, ideal for buyers looking to add value through renovation and transform it into a dream family residence.

Listed as a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom house, the property also features a generously sized, well-constructed attic conversion, allowing for comfortable use as a 5-bedroom home. While the house does require some updates and renovations, it holds immense potential to become a welcoming and desirable space for a large family.

Priced at £160,000, the property is already a fair deal for its location and size. However, we have secured an accepted offer of £120,000—a true bargain considering the value that can be unlocked with the right improvements. Despite some initial buyer hesitation due to cracks in the back bedroom along the internal ceiling line, it’s important to note that these appear to be minor settlement cracks, likely due to slight movement in the extension. From external inspection, the walls remain structurally sound, with no signs of subsidence. Nevertheless, as part of due diligence, a structural engineer’s inspection is recommended for peace of mind.

Given Neath's history as a mining town, it’s also advisable to consult with your solicitor regarding any potential legacy mining shaft concerns. However, the property’s location in a well-established residential area suggests minimal risk.

In summary, this is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial property at a fantastic price in a desirable area. With some thoughtful renovation, this house can be transformed into a beautiful home or a profitable resale investment. Don’t miss out on this hidden gem!
