Discover a compact top-floor one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Pontcanna, offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation. Set within a Victorian terrace, the flat keeps period character with bay-fronted facades and high external cornice detail, while benefiting from double glazing and gas central heating.
The layout is efficient: open-plan lounge/kitchen with Velux light, a double bedroom with sloped ceilings, and a three-piece bathroom. At about 388 sq ft, the apartment suits a single buyer or couple seeking an affordable first home or a rental investment close to city amenities and fast broadband.
Important drawbacks are straightforward: the accommodation is small, the top-floor/attic-style bedroom has reduced ceiling height, and there is no private outdoor space. The immediate area scores high for crime and deprivation statistics, which buyers should weigh alongside the strong local demand for compact city flats.
Practical positives include a new 999-year lease with peppercorn ground rent, EPC rating C, mains gas heating and a low council tax. Maintenance and communal upkeep are shared via service contributions—sensible to factor into running costs. For first-time buyers wanting central Pontcanna life or investors seeking a compact rental, this is an affordable, characterful entry point.
