Compact city home with garden and strong rental potential.
Private entrance and bay-fronted double bedroom with fitted wardrobes
Step inside this well-presented one-bedroom basement apartment in Splott, a short walk from Cardiff city centre. The flat has a private entrance, a bay-fronted double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, and a bright living room that opens to a small conservatory and a modest private courtyard garden. Recent cosmetic updates give neutral, light-filled rooms ready to occupy.
Practical details suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors: the lease has approximately 135 years remaining, it’s being sold chain free, and ground rent is reported at £125 per year. The property is compact (approx. 545 ft²) with efficient gas central heating, double glazing, and a council tax Band A rating, keeping running costs low. An achievable rental estimate of around £950 pcm is indicated, subject to market checks.
Be clear about constraints: this is a basement/ground-floor conversion in a dense urban area. Room sizes are modest and the rear garden is small. The building is of older solid-brick construction and may lack cavity wall insulation. The neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime and significant area deprivation, which some buyers may find important.
Overall, this apartment offers an affordable, low-maintenance city base with immediate move-in potential and reasonable long-term lease security. It will suit someone wanting close central access, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and either a straightforward first home or a compact rental investment.
