A handsome Victorian mid-terrace arranged over multiple storeys, this 4-bedroom home offers generous period proportions and original character. High ceilings, bay windows and decorative brickwork give strong kerb appeal, while three reception rooms provide flexible family living — including a through lounge-diner and a separate breakfast/rec room.
Internally the house extends to around 1,646 sqft and is presented with a modern fitted kitchen, a ground-floor shower room and an upstairs bathroom. Four good-size bedrooms sit upstairs, making the layout well suited to family life or professionals sharing. A small, low-maintenance rear garden with lane access adds practical outdoor space.
Practical points to note: the property is double-glazed (post-2002) and heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. It falls within Cardiff High School and Roath Park Primary catchments and is a short walk from Roath Park, local shops and the university hospital. Council Tax is Band F and tenure is shown as freehold but should be confirmed by your solicitor.
Considerations: the house dates from c.1900–1929 and has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, so owners may want to budget for insulation or energy-efficiency improvements. The wider area is classified as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and the local area is described as very deprived, which may affect long-term resale or rental dynamics. Offers are invited in excess of £475,000.
