About this property

Set on Carmarthen Road in Fforestfach, this three-bedroom home offers plenty of flexible living space across two floors. Previously used as a rental property and now offered vacant, it's a great opportunity for buyers looking to put their own stamp on their next home or investors searching for their next project.

The ground floor offers three separate reception rooms, giving you plenty of choice when it comes to how you use the space. One is currently set up as a bedroom, so there's flexibility for a home office, guest room or additional living space depending on what works for you. Also on the ground floor is the kitchen and a handy WC.
