A Former chapel in the centre of Port Talbot originally constructed in 1879 which is now disused and has been subject to recent fire damage which has caused substantial damage to the roof. The chapel in its current state is prime for redevelopment into a variety of uses subject to necessary consent or demolition and development on the existing land. The building itself is of brick/stone construction with dressed stone and rendered elevations and appears to have been extended at some point to the rear of the property. Inside, the property extends over three floors to over 6,500 sq ft of accommodation and retains many of the original features including the church organ and a large lower ground floors level.
The chapel had previous planning approval (2004) for conversion and use as a Bar/Restaurant but please consult Neath Port Talbot council for further details.
Bethany Chapel is situated centrally and occupies a prominent corner high street presence on the main pedestrian shopping street of Port Talbot. Other local retailers include Principality Building society, Post Office, Peacocks, Home Bargains and various banks.

Apply for Finance* Generally speaking Guide Prices are provided as an indication of each seller's minimum expectation, i.e. 'The Reserve'. They are not necessarily figures which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. Virtually every property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we expect will be set within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure Guide.
By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
