Summary - 10 PLAS MAWR ROAD CARDIFF CF5 3JE
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Share-of-freehold two-bed flat with parking and communal garden — close to transport.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment with Juliet balcony and bright lounge/diner
A well-presented top-floor two-bedroom apartment in Sycamore House, ready for a first-time buyer or investor wanting convenient access to Cardiff. The open lounge/diner with Juliet balcony and a modern fitted kitchen create a bright living space, while two bedrooms and a contemporary shower room complete the accommodation. The property benefits from a share of the freehold and 105 years remaining on the lease.
Practical extras include an allocated parking space with visitor bays, communal lawned gardens, bike and bin stores, and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — useful for home working. The building has double glazing and an EPC rating of C, and the apartment is described as recently updated internally.
Be clear on running costs: heating is by electric storage heaters and the property uses electricity as the main fuel, which can be more expensive than gas. Service charges are currently around £1,680 per year (noted to be increasing to c. £2,160 annually if the monthly figure rises), and there is an annual service charge to cover communal upkeep. The property is in an area with higher crime statistics and significant local deprivation, which may concern some buyers or affect long-term resale in the short term.
Overall this is a practical, move-in ready top-floor flat close to local shops, public transport and commuter routes into Cardiff. It suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a straightforward apartment with parking and low immediate maintenance needs, provided you are comfortable with electric heating and the neighbourhood profile.
