• Site plan

Help to Buy Wales is available at Awel Afan, meaning you could buy a home with a minimum deposit of 5%.

New phase now released! Awel Afan is our new development located in the popular town of Aberavon in Port Talbot. With a beachfront location, easy access to the M4 and just 1.6 miles to the centre of Port Talbot, this could be the perfect place to call home.

Aberavon's seafront is one of Wales' longest beaches! It's got a fabulous promenade that overlooks Swansea Bay and across to the Gower Peninsula. This great landmark is the perfect counterbalance to the industrial life of Port Talbot that is so important to the area.

Offering easy access to both Port Talbot and Swansea, this is a convenient place to live for a range of homebuyers. Junction 4 of the M4 is a short distance away, stretching right through South Wales and across the Bristol Channel. With cross-country routes up to the Brecon Beacons and into the Gower Peninsula, there's every opportunity to explore the countryside from Awel Afan too.
