Large six-bedroom renovated Victorian house with rare parking in Pontcanna.
Six double bedrooms across three storeys
Extensive living space: c.3,317 sq ft (large townhouse)
Newly renovated interiors retaining period detailing
Off-street parking for 4+ cars; lane access
South-west facing low-maintenance paved garden
Solid brick walls assumed uninsulated — potential retrofit needed
Council Tax Band H — very expensive
Local area: very high crime and high deprivation
An impressive six-double-bedroom Victorian townhouse on Cathedral Road offering over 3,300 sq ft of living space in Pontcanna. The house blends original period features — high ceilings, bay windows, stained glass and ornate fireplaces — with a comprehensive modernisation throughout, including contemporary bathrooms and a long kitchen/dining family room. Off-street parking for multiple cars and a low-maintenance south-west facing garden are rare benefits so close to the city centre.
The layout suits a large, multi-generational family who need generous reception space, or an investor seeking a high-end HMO conversion (subject to consents). The deep plan and wide frontage create flexible circulation across three storeys, with large reception rooms to the front and a substantial kitchen extension to the rear that opens to the garden.
Buyers should be aware of material local factors: the property sits in an area recorded as very deprived with very high local crime levels, and Council Tax is Band H (very expensive). Construction is traditional solid brick and is assumed to lack wall insulation, which may mean higher heating bills or future retrofit costs despite efficient mains gas central heating and recent double glazing.
Chain free sale and a prominent Pontcanna address add convenience and appeal, but viewings are best for those prioritising space, period character and parking in a central, vibrant neighbourhood while accepting the area-level drawbacks and potential retrofit tasks.
