Ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Pentrebane offering practical, low-maintenance city living. The lounge is a comfortable size and the separate fitted kitchen keeps living and cooking space distinct. Double glazing and contemporary neutral decor make it move-in ready for an individual or couple.
Practical benefits include allocated off-street parking, a private rear garden for a table and washing line, fast broadband (up to 1800 Mbps) and a low service charge. Council Tax Band B and an EPC rating of D help keep running costs modest, while the apartment’s layout and communal access suit both owner-occupiers and buy-to-let investors.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold with only about 84 years remaining, which will require an urgent lease extension and could affect mortgage options and value. Heating relies on electric room heaters (no central heating), the area records above-average crime and high deprivation levels, and the building’s modest curb appeal limits premium pricing. These factors should be weighed against the flat’s convenience and low immediate upkeep.
