Summary - 23, KNOWBURY AVENUE, PENARTH CF64 5RX
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious plot, garage and easy access to town and coast.
Panoramic sea views from first-floor rooms and balcony
Set on Penarth’s clifftop fringe, this three-bedroom detached house offers generous family living with panoramic coastal views. The ground floor flows from a large lounge into a bright sun room, and a roomy kitchen/diner, while the first floor features a principal bedroom with balcony and ensuite. Three attic rooms provide plentiful storage or occasional accommodation. The property is chain free and sits within easy reach of Penarth town, Cosmeston Lakes and local transport links.
Outside, the south-facing mature garden is a real strength for family life, with a pond, powered summer house and room for children and pets to play. Off-street parking is excellent thanks to a large block‑paved driveway and an attached garage with power. There is scope to extend or modernise further, subject to planning, which will appeal to buyers wanting to add value or adapt the layout.
Buyers should note material, factual drawbacks: the EPC is rated D and the cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so energy performance could be improved. Broadband speeds are slow in this location. The house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and some updating and modernisation will be required to suit contemporary tastes. Council Tax sits at a higher band (G), which is a recurring cost to factor in.
Overall this is a roomy, adaptable family home in a desirable coastal setting. It will suit those after generous outdoor space, strong parking provision and potential to modernise and enhance energy efficiency over time.
