Spacious four-bedroom detached house with garage and garden — renovation potential.
Four large bedrooms; single family bathroom plus separate WC
Corner plot with two garden areas; privacy from wooden fencing
Detached single garage with workshop plus driveway parking
Built 1967–75; solid mid‑century construction
Double glazing fitted post‑2002; mains gas boiler and radiators

Moss on roof/extension and external maintenance needed
Council Tax Band F (expensive); local area flagged as very deprived
Set on a corner plot in a quiet Cardiff cul-de-sac, this four-bedroom detached house offers straightforward family living with useful outdoor space and parking. The layout is traditional and roomy — sizeable lounge, kitchen/dining area, four bedrooms, family bathroom and a separate WC — suited to growing families who want flexibility and extra room for guests or a home office.
Practical benefits include a detached single garage with workshop space, driveway parking, recent double glazing (installed post‑2002) and reliable mains gas central heating. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent, so the home is ready for modern daily life and remote working. The property is freehold and built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, reflecting solid mid‑century construction.
Buyers should note some clear maintenance and running-cost issues. The roof/extension shows moss and will need external maintenance; walls are cavity as built with no added insulation (upgrade likely for energy efficiency). The house has only one full bathroom for four bedrooms, and council tax is band F (expensive). The local area records high deprivation indices despite low crime; this may influence resale or rental prospects.
This house will suit families seeking space and parking in a settled suburb who are prepared to invest in cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvements. It also offers renovation potential for buyers wanting to reconfigure or modernise living areas and reduce running costs over time.
