Summary - 31, Alexandra Road, Canton, CARDIFF CF5 1NT
3 bed 2 bath Terraced
Ideal first home or buy-to-let near city links and local amenities.
Freehold, chain free three-bedroom period end-terrace
A solid three-bedroom period end-terrace in the heart of Canton offering high ceilings, bay windows and classic Victorian character. The house is chain free and freehold, making it straightforward for first-time buyers or landlords seeking a buy-to-let with reliable rental demand.
Internally the layout is flexible: two reception rooms, a sizable kitchen/diner, ground-floor shower room currently adapted for accessibility, and three double bedrooms upstairs with a family bathroom. The property has double glazing, a mains gas boiler with radiators, and good natural light from the tall windows.
The home requires updating throughout—particularly the kitchen and some internal finishes—so it suits buyers prepared to renovate. Structural condition appears sound for a 1900–1929 build but the external walls likely lack insulation, and some modernisation of services may be needed.
Location is a key strength: excellent public transport, close rail links, quick A48/M4 access, and a wide range of shops, cafes and schools nearby. Note practical downsides: small rear garden, higher-than-average local crime statistics, elevated council tax (Band E), and the neighbourhood records higher deprivation. These are balanced by strong commuter links and clear scope to add value.
