Summary - 318 David Morgan Apartments, Barry Lane, CARDIFF CF10 1FR
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Spacious apartment ideal for investors seeking central location and rental demand.
Large open-plan lounge and kitchen, generous proportions for a one-bedroom
A spacious one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Cardiff city centre, set within a mixed-use Victorian arcade development. The open-plan living space and large sash-style windows create a bright, roomy feel across approximately 761 sq ft — uncommon for a one-bedroom city flat and attractive to renters or owner-occupiers seeking low-maintenance central living.
Practical features include double glazing, integrated kitchen appliances, and electric underfloor heating. The property is chain-free and ready for immediate occupation or letting; its central location places shops, restaurants and Cardiff Central transport links within easy walking distance, supporting strong demand from students and city-centre professionals.
Buyers should note material considerations: the lease has 83 years remaining and will require prompt renewal, which can affect mortgage availability and purchase costs. Annual service charges are high (circa £3,000) and council tax is above average. The building sits in a very deprived area with a very high local crime rate — important for both residential buyers and investors to weigh when pricing rental and insurance assumptions.
Overall this apartment offers genuine central convenience and lettable space, but the short lease and ongoing service costs are significant value factors that any buyer or investor must factor into the purchase and financing plan.
