Two double bedrooms; master with en suite and walk-in wardrobe
This first-floor, two-double-bedroom apartment in Burford Gardens offers practical modern living close to Cardiff city centre and Bay. At about 647 sq ft the layout includes an open-plan lounge with French doors, a fitted kitchen, master bedroom with en suite and walk-in wardrobe, plus an allocated off-street parking space.
The building is a relatively recent development (2003–2006) with double glazing, gas central heating and a long lease (992 years). The property is offered chain-free and will be sold at auction — a route that can speed purchase but brings additional buyer costs and deadlines.
Important buyer notes: the sale uses an auction reservation system requiring a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the price, minimum £6,600) and an information pack and administrative fee. Service charge (£2,172 pa) and ground rent (£197 pa) apply. The wider area is a very deprived, high-crime neighbourhood and identified locally as a cosmopolitan student area, which may affect long-term comfort or rental yield depending on buyer priorities.
This flat suits first-time buyers or investors seeking affordable entry in Cardiff with immediate rental or owner-occupation potential. Carrying out full due diligence, reviewing the buyer information pack and budgeting for the reservation fee and ongoing service charges is essential before bidding.
