Extended family home with large garden and good transport links — refurbishment opportunity.
Extended five-bedroom semi-detached family home with bay-front living room
Extended five-bedroom semi-detached house in Rumney offering generous family accommodation and elevated rear views. The layout includes a bay-fronted living room, modernised kitchen, separate dining/reception room, and two bathrooms, plus two top-floor bedrooms with skylights and Juliet balcony. A large multi-level rear garden and front lawn provide outdoor space for families and children. The property has clear strengths for a growing household: plentiful bedrooms, flexible reception space and good natural light throughout. Double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating, and easy access to schools, shops and strong transport links make it a practical everyday home. On-street parking is available; the plot is a decent size for the area. Buyers should note this is a mid-century property described as a fixer-upper that will need updating in places. The exterior and some internal finishes are dated and there's assumed absence of cavity wall insulation. The home presents renovation potential rather than a move-in-perfect finish, so budget for modernisation is advisable. The house sits in a neighbourhood classified as hampered and the wider area shows high economic pressure; however, transport, broadband and mobile signal are strong. This property will suit families seeking space and potential, or investors targeting refurbishment opportunities in a well-connected Cardiff suburb.
