Summary - 39 CLAERWEN DRIVE CARDIFF CF23 6LS
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Refurbished semi with easy school access and low-maintenance garden.
Newly renovated three-bedroom semi with open-plan 24ft lounge/diner/kitchen
Set over an average-sized footprint, this newly renovated three-bedroom semi-detached house offers practical family living within easy walking distance of Lakeside shops, local pubs and bus links. The ground floor has been opened up to create a 24ft lounge/diner/kitchen with a wood-burning stove and patio doors that connect directly to a paved, enclosed rear garden — a low-maintenance outdoor space for play and relaxation. There is also a separate sitting/playroom, useful as a home office or children’s area.
The property suits families seeking convenience and school catchment alignment; it falls within the Lakeside Primary and Cardiff High School areas and benefits from good mobile signal and fast broadband. Off-street parking for two cars sits alongside a front garden, with an additional garage in a nearby block. The home is freehold and has a current EPC rating of C.
Be aware of a few practical limits: the plot is small, there is a single family bathroom, and the glazing was installed before 2002 so some frames or seals may be older. The wider neighbourhood scores as very deprived, which may affect long-term local investment and services despite low recorded crime locally. The house dates from the late 1960s–1970s construction period, so while updated internally it will retain some mid‑century structural elements.
Overall this is a ready-to-move-in, modernised family home that balances contemporary living with sensible running costs and good connectivity. It will appeal to families who prioritise local schools, easy transport links and an open-plan living layout, and who are comfortable with a modest plot and a single bathroom.
