Three double bedrooms, large garden — renovation project with strong location appeal.
Three large double bedrooms despite compact overall size
Set a short walk from Roath Park, this Victorian mid-terrace offers three large double bedrooms and a generous rear garden — rare in this price bracket for CF24. The house retains period character with a bay-fronted façade, sliding doors linking two reception rooms, and double glazing installed post-2002. Practical basics are in place: mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
The property requires modernisation throughout, presenting a straightforward renovation project for a buyer wanting to add value and personalise living space. The layout includes two reception rooms, a large kitchen, utility room, ground-floor W/C and a family bathroom upstairs. The overall internal size is small (approximately 344 sq ft), so room proportions feel compact despite three double bedrooms.
Location is a plus for students and professionals: nearby cafés, shops, places of worship and transport links, yet the immediate area records higher deprivation levels and average crime figures, which may affect some buyers’ priorities. There is no flood risk recorded. For investors or first-time buyers prepared to renovate, this freehold terraced house offers potential to improve rental yield or create a comfortable long-term home.
Notable negatives are clear: the property needs renovation, the plot and internal floorspace are small, and the walls are likely uninsulated (as-built sandstone/limestone). These are realistic costs to factor into any offer or refurbishment plan.
