Exciting news for the Afan Valley! A Neath-based social housing provider is eyeing up plans to bring 25 brand new affordable homes to Croeserw. Currently open for public consultation, these plans seek to transform vacant land off Pen-Y-Bryn and Menai Avenue into a thriving community space.
With a vision for a unique residential development, this proposal isn’t just about houses—it’s about creating a vibrant neighbourhood. The plan includes a mix of semi-detached homes, one-bedroom apartments, and an assisted living block, designed to cater to a variety of needs. Bringing new life to the area, it aims to contribute positively to the street scene and provide much-needed affordable housing options.
The first plot fronting Pen-y-Bryn was once home to houses that were demolished around 2009. Now, there’s an opportunity to revitalise the space and provide modern, high-quality residential options. The second site will feature an assisted living block, thoughtfully designed to harmonise with the hill, ensuring it complements rather than dominates its surroundings.
This development aligns with broader plans for enhanced infrastructure in the Afan Valley, including potential road realignments and demolishing failing railway bridges.
