Summary - 23 BRECON STREET CARDIFF CF5 1RE
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Victorian mid-terrace with original period features and stripped wood floors
Set on a popular Canton street, this well-presented Victorian mid-terrace combines period charm with practical city living. The ground floor offers two reception rooms, a cosy bay-front lounge with a wood-burning stove, and a kitchen/breakfast room that leads to a useful utility area and the enclosed rear garden. Neutral décor and stripped wooden floors give the house an immediately welcoming feel.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms plus a versatile study/nursery and a stylish bathroom lit by skylights. Double glazing and a modern boiler with radiators provide comfortable heating, while the property’s layout and loft access make it straightforward to personalise or reconfigure as needs change.
This is a freehold home in a highly convenient location: Cowbridge Road East’s shops, cafés and Chapter Arts Centre are within easy walking distance, and excellent bus and cycling links connect to the city centre and station. The compact, low-maintenance rear garden with raised beds and a shed is ideal for outdoor dining and growing plants without heavy upkeep.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the property’s solid brick walls are likely without cavity insulation, the plot is small, and council tax is above average. The surrounding area scores high for professional residents but is within a wider local area classed as very deprived. Overall, this house suits first-time buyers or small families seeking character, good transport links and a ready-to-live-in home with scope for energy improvements.
