Summary - 30 DORCHESTER AVENUE PENYLAN CARDIFF CF23 9BR
4 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Large south-facing garden, modern kitchen extension and garage with conversion potential.
Edwardian semi with period features and high ceilings
This Edwardian semi presents spacious family living across two floors with strong period character and high ceilings. A modern kitchen extension with island, skylights and bi-fold doors opens onto an impressive L-shaped, south-facing garden — rare for the area and excellent for outdoor family life and entertaining.
Four well-proportioned bedrooms sit upstairs with elevated rear views toward Penylan and the Bristol Channel. A single family bathroom and additional WCs serve the house; buyers should note there is only one full bathroom for four bedrooms. The detached single garage offers parking and scope for conversion or development, subject to planning.
Practical details: the property is freehold, gas‑fired central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown) and cavity walls likely without added insulation. Council tax is high (Band G) and the wider locality shows pockets of significant deprivation despite being within an affluent suburb and good school catchments. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent and there is no flood risk.
This home suits growing families seeking period character combined with a generous private garden and modern kitchen living. It also offers modest development potential (garage) and scope for energy improvements — a straightforward opportunity to add value while enjoying immediate family-friendly space.
