This spacious bay-fronted Victorian end-terrace blends original period detail with recent upgrades to create a comfortable family home in Penylan. High corniced ceilings, a mosaic-tiled entrance, spindle-bannister staircase and impressive fireplaces give the house clear character, while the open-plan kitchen/breakfast room and modern bathroom provide everyday convenience.
Set on a quiet residential road close to Roath Mill Gardens, Wellfield Road and Albany Road amenities, the property offers generous internal space (approximately 1,572 sq ft) across a traditional four-room ground floor layout and three double bedrooms upstairs. A level, walled rear garden with gated lane access gives outdoor privacy and useful storage options; broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Practical considerations: the home has been newly renovated and benefits from double glazing and a modern gas combi boiler, but walls are solid brick with no known insulation upgrades. There is a single family bathroom only, the plot is small, and council tax is described as quite expensive. The wider area records higher deprivation despite good local parks and schools, so buyers should weigh location advantages against community-level factors.
Overall this is a characterful, large Victorian family house in a sought-after Penylan street, suited to buyers who value period features with modernised living spaces and who are comfortable addressing energy-efficiency improvements if desired.
