This Victorian mid-terrace in Canton offers a practical family layout with three double bedrooms and two reception rooms across two floors. Original timber/block wood flooring and period fireplaces give character, while a rear garden provides outdoor space for children or pets. The house sits within easy walking distance of Victoria Park, local cafés, shops and Cardiff city centre, making daily life convenient.
The property is a straightforward canvas for improvement: the kitchen and bathroom are serviceable but the house generally requires cosmetic updating and modern finishes to maximise comfort and value. There is good potential to extend to the rear (subject to consents) and open up ground-floor space for contemporary family living.
Construction is traditional solid brick from the early 1900s, with double glazing fitted before 2002 and mains gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. Note there is likely no cavity wall insulation in the original walls and the property may benefit from energy efficiency upgrades. The plot is small with a modest forecourt and a small-to-medium rear garden typical of this terrace type.
Suitable for families seeking a central Canton location or investors targeting the private-renting market, this freehold home offers solid bones and clear scope for value-adding improvements. Buyers should budget for cosmetic refurbishment, possible insulation work, and any desired reconfiguration or extension costs.
