Number One agent Steven Brown is pleased to offer this unique investment opportunity for a former three storey retail space that has already been taken back to bare brick and comes with approved planning consent and drawn plans for three self-contained apartments (1 x Two Bedroom & 2 x One Bedrooms) and parking. Situated in the ever-popular village of Ystalyfera, the property benefits from excellent transport links to the M4 motorway for Swansea or Cardiff, whilst also being within reaching distance of Brecon Beacons National Park and the Black mountains. The local areas are well served with a good range of shops, cafes and general local amenities.
Planning Ref No. P2021/0469, with the architect plans available upon request from Number One Real Estate; The approved planning consists of a change of use of the ground floor former shop and the development of a three storey rear extension with Juliet balcony, two storey flat roof rear extension with Juliet balcony, single storey flat roof rear extension to facilitate the three apartments along with ancillary parking, retaining wall and balustrade, bin and bicycle storage.
Currently the ground floor is a former retail area made up of two rooms, whilst the first floor would have been used as two former bedrooms. Leading to the lower ground floor, would have been the kitchen area spread between two rooms. From the lower ground floor, you access the large open rear garden that leads to a public car park area.
