Standing in a prominent location at the centre of Neath. An attractive three-storey property with front and rear entrances, the rear overlooking the local Church, in one of the most attractive quadrants within Neath town centre. Under the tenure of the current owners, in 2022 the property underwent a complete refurbishment programme, and is appointed to a very good standard throughout.
