Light-filled and move-in ready, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment on Kings Road combines Victorian character with recent updates. A brand-new roof and fresh decoration throughout mean minimal immediate maintenance, while refurbished kitchen and shower room deliver modern convenience. The layout suits first-time buyers seeking a manageable, well-located home or investors after a lettable city-centre property.
Features include two double bedrooms, a bright lounge with high ceilings and bay window, and a private rear courtyard for outdoor space. Permit parking is available (up to two permits), and a communal garden provides extra outdoor amenity. At 657 sq ft the apartment offers a compact but practical footprint with handy storage and straightforward gas central heating.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property is leasehold (approximately 158 years remaining) and additional leasehold/legal fees may apply. The building dates from before 1900 and external walls are traditional sandstone/limestone with assumed no insulation, which could affect running costs. The local area scores as very deprived with very high recorded crime levels — important for buyers to consider for long-term living or lettings.
Overall, this is a well-presented, chain-free apartment in a highly convenient Pontcanna/Canton location. It offers a low-upfront move-in option with clear potential for modest personalisation or rental income, but purchasers should factor in location-related considerations and possible improvements to thermal efficiency.
