Set on Westgate Street in the heart of the city, this two-bedroom second-floor apartment offers practical city-centre living with standout views and easy transport links. The reception room opens through French doors onto a private balcony that looks towards the local rugby stadium — a bright spot for social living and entertaining. Both bedrooms are doubles and the kitchen is well-equipped, with a separate fire-escape for safety. Lift access makes upper-floor living straightforward.
The flat sits in a Georgian-period building with characterful red-brick elevations. It has a long lease (approximately 977 years remaining) and is sold as a share of the freehold, which supports ownership stability. The property’s central location places parks, cafés and shops within easy reach, and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit remote working or streaming.
Buyers should note several material drawbacks. The service charge is high at £5,463.17 per year. The local area records very high crime and very high deprivation indices, and council tax is above average. The building’s glazing is secondary and the cavity walls were built without insulation (assumed), so additional measures may be needed to improve energy efficiency and heating costs.
This apartment suits someone seeking an affordable entry to central Cardiff — particularly first-time buyers or investors after city-centre rentals. It delivers immediate usability while offering potential to improve energy performance and tailor the interior. Viewings are recommended to assess the space and the location’s lifestyle fit against the known costs and area characteristics.
