Summary - 81 POPLAR ROAD CARDIFF CF5 3PT
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Practical three-bed home with parking and low-maintenance garden.
Three bedrooms with large landing and flexible layout
Set on Poplar Road in Fairwater, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers practical family living with clear potential for improvement. The ground floor provides a large open-plan living and dining room, separate kitchen and a useful utility room with plumbing and electrics, while three double/large bedrooms sit off a roomy landing upstairs. The property benefits from off-street parking, a low-maintenance paved rear garden and mains gas central heating.
The house is an average-sized, mid-20th-century build (1950–1966) with double glazing (installation date unknown) and filled cavity walls. There is one bathroom, so buyers who need multiple bathrooms should factor that in. The plot is small and the home will suit those looking for a manageable garden and straightforward maintenance rather than extensive grounds.
Location is convenient for local amenities including shops, a post office, and good bus and rail links into Cardiff centre. Nearby schools and local leisure attractions add appeal for families and first-time buyers. Note the area has high crime indicators and is classified as very deprived and hampered; prospective buyers should weigh these factors when considering resale or rental potential.
This property will suit first-time buyers, families or downsizers seeking an affordable, ready-to-live-in home with scope to personalise. It is freehold with moderate council tax, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical positives for modern living.
