Summary - Flat 1, 26 Connaught Road, Roath CF24 3PU
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free refurbishment opportunity near parks, shops and transport links.
Ground-floor two-bedroom flat with Victorian character features
A ground-floor, two-bedroom flat in the heart of Roath offering clear scope to add value through refurbishment. The property occupies part of a Victorian townhouse and retains period features such as high ceilings and bay windows, providing attractive character once modernised.
This apartment needs comprehensive updating: kitchen, bathroom and general redecoration are required, and heating is currently by electric room heaters. There is double glazing installed after 2002 but walls are likely solid brick with no insulation, so further energy improvements will be needed.
Important buyer note — the lease has only around 63–64 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders may refuse to lend on this basis, so cash buyers or those prepared to arrange a lease extension should be aware. The property is offered chain free, with a communal garden and easy access to local amenities, transport links and nearby parks.
Suited to investors or experienced DIY buyers, this flat sits in a popular, well-connected neighbourhood with strong rental demand. Renovation and a lease extension would materially increase marketability and value, but factor in refurbishment costs and potential costs to extend the lease.
