A striking loft-style two-bedroom apartment set within a converted Victorian warehouse in central Pontcanna. At approximately 1,658 sq ft this property feels more like a house — a vast open-plan reception with high ceilings, exposed brick and timber beams creates dramatic living space ideal for entertaining and creative layouts.
The master suite includes a dressing area and ensuite, while the second double bedroom benefits from a small balcony. Practical features include off-street parking behind electric gates, double glazing, mains gas boiler and fast broadband and mobile signal — useful for working from home. The finish is contemporary and the conversion retains strong period character throughout.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with about 103 years remaining, an annual service charge of £1,200 and ground rent of £200. Council tax is Band F (expensive). The building dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls with no known insulation — buyers should factor potential thermal and acoustic upgrade costs. Local crime is reported above average and the immediate area scores as very deprived, though the wider neighbourhood is populated by highly qualified professionals.
This apartment will suit a buyer seeking dramatic, characterful living in a central Pontcanna location — someone who values space, light and architectural features and is comfortable managing the responsibilities of a large period apartment (lease administration, service charges and possible retrofit works).
