A substantial four-storey Victorian end-terrace on Llandaff High Street, offered chain-free and freehold. The house dates from circa 1880 and combines generous room sizes, period features and a dramatic vaulted reception overlooking a landscaped rear garden. Its layout — five principal reception areas plus four bedrooms — suits families wanting flexible living and home-working space.
Key practical assets include off-street parking with a large stone-built double garage (formerly a coach house) and a private garden enclosed by high stone walls. The property has many retained character features: high ceilings, exposed beams, stained glass and fireplaces, together with fitted kitchen appliances and a separate laundry room. Mobile signal is excellent and there is no flood risk.
Buyers should note important, factual drawbacks. The building is solid brick and likely lacks modern external wall insulation; heating is gas boiler and radiators. Council tax is high (band G). The local area statistics show very deprived area measures despite pockets of highly qualified residents — this may affect resale perception. Broadband speeds are only average. Some rooms are spread over multiple levels, which may be less convenient for limited mobility.
Overall this is a rare, characterful family home in a prime village-centre location with clear potential for further modernisation (including garage conversion subject to permissions). It will suit a buyer seeking generous period accommodation and who is comfortable with upgrading insulation and energy efficiency over time.
