This compact three-bedroom terraced house on Crofts Street offers a straightforward, affordable route into Cardiff city living. The layout includes two reception rooms, a small galley kitchen and a rear garden — practical for a first home or a buy-to-let aimed at city renters.
The property is freehold and benefits from double glazing (installed post-2002), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Its proximity to Cardiff city centre and local transport links makes commuting and city amenities easily accessible. A small front garden and a private rear garden add outdoor space that’s rare at this price.
There are clear renovation needs: the kitchen and some internal finishes are dated, and the heating relies on electric room heaters. The house is small overall (approximately 607 sq ft) and will feel compact for larger households. The immediate area is classified as very deprived with higher crime levels; buyers should weigh location-related considerations.
For a first-time buyer prepared to modernise or an investor targeting city demand, this property offers value through location and layout. A sensible budget for updating heating and kitchen fittings — and a thorough survey before purchase — will be important steps to unlock its potential.
