This recently renovated first-floor maisonette offers modern living in the heart of Roath, moments from Roath Park Lake and Wellfield Road. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen and two bedrooms make efficient use of the 827 sq ft layout, while a versatile landing provides useful extra space for a home office or reading nook.
Practical running costs are straightforward: a long lease (999 years from 1989), a nominal ground rent (£20 p.a.), and shared buildings insurance. The property benefits from gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and integrated kitchen appliances, so it’s essentially move-in ready for a first-time buyer or city professional.
Buyers should note some material points: the building’s original solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated, so thermal efficiency may be lower than modern builds and further insulation work could be needed. The neighbourhood records above-average crime and is classified as very deprived, which may affect resale perception and requires practical consideration. There is one bathroom and no dedicated parking mentioned.
Overall, this chain-free, share-of-freehold maisonette combines stylish, turn-key accommodation with strong proximity to local amenities and transport. It’s a practical, well-presented option for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors prepared to accept local area challenges or invest in small improvements.
