Period mid-terrace (c.1900–1929); walls likely uninsulated

High local crime and very deprived area — factor for families/investors
This three-bedroom mid-terrace in Roath offers practical city living with clear upside for first-time buyers or investors. Two reception rooms, a modern kitchen and a cosy log burner create a comfortable home on a compact urban plot. The loft has skylights and usable space, providing straightforward scope for conversion (subject to consents).
The house is well presented with a small, well-maintained garden and double glazing, and benefits from mains gas central heating and a boiler. At about 941 sq ft across three floors, room sizes suit a small family or sharers; the single bathroom provides basic facilities and may be a consideration for larger households.
Buyers should note the wider neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan student and professional area with higher-than-average crime statistics and very high area deprivation. The terrace dates from c.1900–1929 and the original sandstone/limestone walls are assumed uninsulated, so extra thermal or acoustic upgrades could be required. Freehold tenure and proximity to the city centre and fast public transport links are strong practical advantages.
