Chain-free buy-to-let with tenants in situ and renovation upside near Cardiff transport links..
- Two double bedrooms with roomy through lounge/dining area
- Sold chain free and with tenants in situ (investment sale)
- Enclosed rear garden; small plot suitable for low maintenance
- EPC rating E — energy upgrades likely recommended
- Solid brick Victorian build; insulation assumed absent
- Located in a very deprived area with high local crime rate
- Walking distance to bus links, amenities; excellent mobile/fast broadband
- Modest overall size (776 sq ft) and dated interior requiring refurbishment
A mid-terrace Victorian two-bedroom house offered chain free and sold with tenants in situ — a straightforward purchase for a buy-to-let investor or portfolio extender. The property includes a spacious through lounge, a large fitted kitchen and an enclosed rear garden; accommodation totals about 776 sq ft across two floors. Its solid brick construction offers good bones and scope for energy upgrades.
Located within easy walking distance of bus links to Cardiff city centre and Cardiff Bay, the house sits in an urban cultural-mix area with many local amenities close by. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, supporting modern tenant needs. The current EPC rating of E indicates energy improvements would increase appeal and reduce running costs.
Important considerations: the property is in a very deprived area with a high local crime rate, and the walls are assumed to be uninsulated solid brick — further insulation or retrofit work is likely needed. The accommodation and plot are modest in size, and the house shows dated elements and renovation potential, so factor refurbishment and EPC works into purchase and ownership costs.
Overall, this is a pragmatic investment opportunity for a buyer comfortable managing tenants and carrying targeted upgrades to raise rental value and energy efficiency. Being chain free and sold with tenants in situ streamlines completion but limits immediate vacant possession options.
