About
Description Set in an elevated position with stunning valley views, Garreg Wen, Garreg Side, Blaengarw is a spacious three-bedroom bungalow offering generous accommodation, extensive outdoor space, and exciting potential for modernisation.
Tucked away with only a handful of neighbouring properties, the home offers a real sense of privacy and tranquillity, making it a rare opportunity for those seeking a quieter, semi-rural lifestyle.
The property benefits from a large driveway providing ample off-road parking, along with a substantial garage and a traditional stone-built storage area for coal.
Inside, the bungalow features a large, light-filled lounge with expansive windows that perfectly frame the surrounding valley and flood the space with natural light.
Complemented by a charming stone feature wall with a log burner that adds warmth and a cosy focal point to the room.
The generous kitchen/diner offers excellent scope for redesign and is complemented by a small lean-to at the side.
There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, a main bathroom fitted with a four-piece suite, and the added convenience of a separate WC.
Externally, the property boasts both large front and rear gardens, along with additional land extending in total to approximately 3.5 acres.
In addition, there is separate land located opposite the property with two stables, bringing the total plot to approximately 3.5 acres-ideal for equestrian use or those looking for space and potential.
The home is in need of modernisation, presenting a fantastic opportunity to create a bespoke living space.
Heating is currently provided by a solid fuel anthracite coal aga, with a water tank in place (no gas boiler). There is also the benefit of an electric shower and electric cooker/oven.
Offered chain free, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a property with land, views, and huge potential in a sought-after semi-rural location.
