558–560 sq ft (approx) — compact, efficient layout
Share of freehold with a 150-year lease on completion
All-electric: room heaters and electric hot-water cylinder
Solid brick walls; likely no cavity insulation (higher heating cost risk)
Full-fibre broadband and modern fire-safety systems installed
Close to Bute Park, Pontcanna amenities and Cardiff city centre
Local data flags high crime and significant area deprivation
Set within a handsome Victorian conversion on Cathedral Road, this newly renovated two-bedroom apartment blends period character with contemporary finishes. At about 559 sq ft, the layout delivers an open-plan kitchen/living space with high ceilings and bay windows that maximise natural light — ideal for first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-maintenance city pad close to parks and Pontcanna’s cafés and restaurants.
The specification is high: integrated appliances, luxury tiling, bespoke fitted wardrobes, full‑fibre broadband and modern fire-safety systems. The building offers share of freehold with a long 150-year lease on completion, and communal security features including video entry and sprinkler systems add practical value and peace of mind.
Buyers should note the property is all-electric with wall/room heaters and an electric hot-water cylinder; there is no gas supply. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so heating costs could be higher than a gas-heated home. The area data supplied flags high local crime and significant deprivation — factors to consider for lifestyle or rental projections.
Overall this is a compact, ready-to-move-in apartment that trades garden space for location and specification. It will suit someone prioritising stylish, low-upkeep living near Cardiff city centre or an investor wanting a contemporary, well-specified rental in Pontcanna, provided they budget for electric heating costs and factor local area challenges into longer-term plans.
