This recently renovated two-bedroom mid-terrace offers 980 sq ft of practical, move-in-ready living in a well-connected part of Cardiff. The open-plan living and kitchen create a bright, sociable ground floor, while two double bedrooms and a large family bathroom provide comfortable sleeping space upstairs. As a freehold, chain-free purchase, it suits first-time buyers seeking an easy transaction and usable space from day one.
The property’s low-maintenance rear garden and handy shed add outdoor storage without upkeep demands. Positioning close to local shops, schools, Cardiff city centre and Cardiff Bay gives everyday convenience and good transport links. The house’s Victorian character—solid brick construction and period facade—combines with contemporary finishes inside for broad appeal.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: the surrounding area records high crime and very high deprivation, which may affect community feel, insurance and long-term value. The property has double glazing installed before 2002 and solid brick walls presumed without modern cavity insulation, so further energy-efficiency improvements could be needed. Parking is on-street only and the roof/chimney appears to have had past repairs, which may warrant inspection.
Overall, this is a strong starter home for someone prioritising location, usable space and a straightforward purchase, provided they accept the neighbourhood challenges and potential for minor energy and external maintenance work.
