Set within sought-after Pontcanna, this one-bedroom apartment offers bright, flexible living in a Victorian building close to parks and city transport. The open-plan reception benefits from high ceilings and a dedicated breakfast nook, creating an airy main space that suits first-time buyers seeking character or investors targeting strong rental demand.
The double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and the bathroom is contemporary with a heated towel rail. Practical comforts include secure entry and double glazing (install date unknown). At around 456 sq ft, the layout is efficient but overall size is compact, so storage and space planning are important.
Important considerations: tenure is unknown and the building’s stone walls were built without assumed insulation, which may affect heating efficiency. Main heating is electric via a boiler and radiators, and the property relies on electricity for fuel. The local area has very high crime and is classified as very deprived, which could influence insurance, security needs, and long-term capital growth.
This apartment is offered with no onward chain, making it a quicker purchase route. It will suit buyers prioritising location, character and convenience, and investors or first-time buyers willing to manage retrofit or energy improvements and local-area considerations.
