A commanding six-bedroom Victorian semi-detached home set on Howells Crescent, just steps from Llandaff Cathedral and village amenities. The house retains striking period detail — original cast-iron glazed veranda, stained-glass insets, high ceilings, solid wood floors and fireplaces — while offering large bright reception rooms and a generous, well-equipped kitchen with island.
Living is arranged over three floors, with flexible bedroom accommodation including two bedrooms on the top floor and a luxurious first-floor family bathroom plus a second shower room. French doors from the dining area open to a decked terrace and wraparound garden, and a paved forecourt with wrought-iron gates provides kerb appeal and outdoor storage.
Practical strengths include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. There is no recorded flood risk. The house sits within a sought-after schooling area and leafy parks, making it a strong choice for growing families seeking period character and space.
Notable considerations: the property lies in an area recorded as very deprived and carries a very expensive council tax band. The home dates from the early 20th century (c.1900–1929) — while well-presented, buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance typical of period houses and confirm exact dates of glazing and any historic upgrades before purchase.
