Newly renovated top-floor one-bedroom on iconic Cathedral Road with share of freehold.
Top-floor one-bedroom in a converted Victorian building
Set on iconic Cathedral Road in Pontcanna, this newly renovated top-floor one-bedroom flat blends Victorian character with contemporary finishes. The conversion retains high ceilings and bay-window proportions while delivering bespoke kitchens, quality tiling, and high-speed full-fibre broadband — ideal for a professional or first-time buyer seeking a stylish city base.
The apartment forms one of seven residences within an elegant period building and benefits from a long 150-year lease and share of freehold on completion. Safety and convenience are strong features: the development includes sprinklers, a video-entry system, LED lighting, and a full 10-year structural warranty.
Practical positives include integrated appliances, bespoke storage in the bedroom, a modern shower room, and durable herringbone-style flooring. The location gives direct access to Pontcanna Fields, Sophia Gardens and local cafés, while excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support home working and streaming.
Buyers should note the surrounding ward is classified with high crime levels and very high area deprivation; this affects resale and rental perceptions. Although the apartment is newly renovated to a high standard, communal maintenance and living in a dense urban neighbourhood are factors to consider. EPC C is recorded; buyers should verify council tax banding and seek independent surveys and legal advice.
