Summary - 3 MERTHYR ROAD TONGWYNLAIS CARDIFF CF15 7LF
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Characterful four-bedroom family home with large garden, planning permission for extension..
Four bedrooms and two reception rooms with high ceilings and period features
This four-bedroom semi-detached house on Merthyr Road blends period character with practical family living. High ceilings, bay windows and original fireplaces give the house strong charm, while the extended family room with a wood-burning stove creates a large, flexible heart for daily life and entertaining. The private rear garden, large plot and views toward Garth mountain and Castell Coch add outdoor appeal and a village feel within the city boundary.
The property is well located for families: walking distance to local schools, immediate access to the Taff Trail, and quick road links to the M4 and A470 for commuting. Fast broadband and average mobile signal support home working and connectivity. Planning permission is already granted for a large rear extension and driveway (ref: 23/02707/HSE), offering clear scope to extend living space and add off-street parking.
Buyers should note the home retains solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation and double glazing installed before 2002, so thermal efficiency may be below modern standards and further insulation work could be needed. Council Tax Band F is relatively expensive. The wider area shows signs of local deprivation despite this comfortable neighbourhood setting, so anyone sensitive to neighbourhood socioeconomic mix should visit to form their own view.
Overall this is a characterful family home with immediate living comfort and genuine potential to improve and extend. It will suit buyers seeking space, period features and a large garden with scope to add modern efficiencies and parking.
