Summary - 2 FOREST VIEW CARDIFF CF5 3EL
1 bed 1 bath Studio
Affordable low-maintenance studio with long lease and parking near transport.
Ground-floor studio with vacant possession and chain free
A compact, ground-floor studio offering chain-free sale and vacant possession — suited to investors, first-time buyers or anyone seeking a low-maintenance city base. The property benefits from a newly extended lease (168 years remaining) with peppercorn ground rent and allocated off-street parking, making it straightforward to own or let.
Set in a quiet, purpose-built development with well-kept communal gardens, the flat is a short walk to local shops and immediate bus links, with the train station about one mile away. The open-plan layout includes a small fitted kitchen and a separate bathroom with bath and overhead shower. EPC rating D and a noted potential rental income around £800 pcm underline its investment appeal.
Important negatives to note: the flat is small (approx. 26 sq m) with limited natural light in parts and a service charge of £960 per year. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime levels — factors that may affect resale and lettings and that buyers should factor into budgeting and rental expectations.
Overall this is a low-fee, low-upkeep studio with clear rental potential and long lease security. It will suit an investor seeking a straightforward city-let or a first purchaser wanting an affordable entry into Cardiff, provided you accept the compact size and local area challenges.
