A much-loved 1930s semi with large rooms and strong family appeal. The house offers two excellent reception rooms, a roomy kitchen with pantry, three well-proportioned bedrooms and a sizeable bathroom plus a separate first-floor W/C. Natural light from the front bay windows helps the interior feel bright despite dated finishes.
Set on a huge plot, the property includes off-street driveway parking, side access and a lengthy rear garden with clear scope for landscaping or extension (subject to consents). The home is freehold, not in a flood-risk area, and sits close to local amenities, schools and good road and rail links into Cardiff city centre.
The property requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic and likely systems upgrades will be needed to bring it up to contemporary standards. The wider area is classified as very deprived and local crime is above average, which buyers should weigh against the purchase price and renovation potential. Council tax is moderate.
This is a practical purchase for a family seeking space and long-term value, or an investor prepared to renovate. Buyers should factor in refurbishment costs and consider the neighbourhood context alongside the property’s substantial garden, generous room sizes and convenient location.
