Set within walking distance of Cardiff city centre, this traditional mid-terrace offers a compact but practical layout ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property is chain free and freehold, with two double bedrooms upstairs and a light lounge leading through to a practical kitchen and ground-floor bathroom.
The house requires renovation throughout — modernisation and updating will be needed to bring the mid-century kitchen, bathroom and finishes up to current standards. The solid stone walls are likely uninsulated (as-built) and the property would benefit from improved thermal upgrades and general refurbishment to unlock its full potential and energy efficiency.
Outside is a small, low-maintenance courtyard suitable for potted plants and al fresco seating. Practical positives include mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing of unknown age, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home-working or letting to students and young professionals.
Be candid about the location: the immediate area shows high crime and very high deprivation indicators, which affects resale and rental premiums and may influence mortgage or tenancy prospects. That said, the central location, two double bedrooms and no onward chain make this a quick-to-move-into investment for someone prepared to renovate and manage the local-market considerations.
