Chain-free period flat with parking and private outside space near Pontcanna.
Chain-free one-bedroom apartment, 442 sq ft
A bright one-bedroom apartment set within a striking Victorian building on sought-after Cathedral Road. The flat occupies an average-sized 442 sq ft and benefits from period bay windows, high ceilings and a private outside area — rare extras for a city-centre one-bed. Off-street parking and a long lease (share of freehold with c.998 years remaining) add practical value and ownership security.
The interior is presented in modern style with double glazing installed after 2002, an open lounge/kitchen arrangement and a good-sized double bedroom. Heating is electric with a boiler and radiators; buyers should note the building’s original sandstone/limestone walls are likely uninsulated, which can affect running costs despite the glazing improvements.
This property is offered chain-free, making it suitable for a swift move or rental start. Its location in Pontcanna places cafes, restaurants and parkland within easy walking distance — ideal for a commuter or first-time buyer seeking an active neighbourhood. However, the area records high crime and significant deprivation indices, so buyers should weigh lifestyle benefits against local statistics.
Practical points: council tax is above average and there is a small ground rent of £250. The apartment suits someone looking for a low-maintenance urban base or an entry-level purchase with period character, but those sensitive to energy costs or seeking larger living space should consider the size and construction-related insulation limits.
