This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment occupies a handsome Victorian conversion on Cathedral Road, Pontcanna — one of Cardiff’s most sought-after streets. The conversion of seven luxury apartments has been newly completed to a high specification: bespoke Symphony kitchen units, high-quality tiling, stylish shower room, full-fibre broadband and modern safety systems including sprinklers and smoke detectors. The apartment benefits from private courtyard access via bedroom French doors and generous bay windows that maximise natural light.
The home is well set up for a first purchase or buy-to-let: chain free, share of freehold with a 150-year lease on completion, an EPC rating of C and a full 10-year structural warranty. Fixtures and finishes are high-spec, from induction hob and integrated appliances to designer lighting and fitted wardrobes, offering move-in ready accommodation with contemporary convenience.
There are important practical points to check before viewing. The area records higher crime and very high deprivation indices, which may affect resale and rental dynamics. The apartment is compact (around 463 sq ft) so storage and entertaining space are limited. Some building details in the listing about heating and electrical systems are mixed; buyers should verify current installations and operating arrangements in pre-contract enquiries.
Overall, this is a stylish, newly renovated Victorian apartment in a prestigious Pontcanna location that will suit a first-time buyer or investor who values period character and modern specification. Prospective buyers should factor in local area considerations and confirm technical details with a survey and solicitor.
