A portfolio of residential and commercial property assets in Cowbridge in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, has been put up for sale for £8m+.
The collection of 24 properties in and around the historic market town is being sold by its private owner, who has assembled it over decades.
The portfolio comprises seven houses, 14 apartments and four offices, which are 98% let. While the properties are being sold together, piecemeal sales may be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Tom Griffiths, associate partner, capital markets at Knight Frank, which alongside Watts & Morgan has been appointed to market the opportunity, said: “This is a really exciting and genuinely unique opportunity to own a portfolio of properties in one of Wales’s most sought-after market towns. A sale like this is incredibly rare – it is likely to only come along once in a generation.
“On top of the residential dwellings being in one of the country’s most affluent areas with an attractive supply-demand dynamic, the commercial properties are well let, occupied by longstanding tenants, and located in areas popular with office occupiers. The new owner can also add value through proactive asset management or the piecemeal break-up of the portfolio. We expect to see a great deal of interest in the sale from local private buyers, as well as from the Welsh diaspora elsewhere in the UK and further afield.”
Richard Morgan, from Watts & Morgan, added: “Cowbridge’s rental market has been remarkably resilient in recent years. Demand continues to outstrip supply, particularly for well‑presented family homes and modern town centre apartments. Tenants are prioritising quality, energy efficiency, and walkable amenities, and Cowbridge delivers all three in a way few South Wales towns can match.
“We’re seeing properties let within days, often with multiple applications, and landlords who invest in upgrades – from insulation to contemporary kitchens – are achieving strong rents and long-term tenancies. Cowbridge remains one of the most sought‑after locations in the Vale of Glamorgan, and that desirability is translating directly into a very competitive, fast-moving rental market.”
