Summary - Padarn Close, Lakeside, Cardiff CF23 6ER
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious four-bedroom house near Cardiff High with large private gardens and garage.
Corner plot with private drive and detached garage
Set at the far end of a quiet private close, this substantial four double-bedroom detached house occupies a generous corner plot with private drive and detached garage. Recent upgrades include a new interlocking tiled roof (2025), Golden Oak PVC windows (2020, FENSA), and an electric radiator heating system (2021). The bright ground floor includes an 18ft lounge, formal dining room, fitted kitchen, breakfast room and a large conservatory with a newly insulated tiled roof.
The property sits within Cardiff High School catchment and is a short walk to local schools, two rail stations, the University Hospital of Wales and Heath Park. The site benefits from an EV charger, generous rear and side gardens, wood-block and engineered oak floors, and pleasant elevated outlooks across playing fields from several first-floor bedrooms.
Practical drawbacks are stated plainly: the house has an EPC rating of E and is in Council Tax band G (quite expensive). External walls were built as cavity without added insulation (assumed), so further work to improve energy performance is likely. There is a single modern shower room serving four double bedrooms, which may not suit larger families without adding a second bathroom.
This home will suit buyers seeking roomy, well-located family accommodation with strong school links and clear long-term potential. It is livable now thanks to recent major works, but buyers should budget for energy upgrades and consider adding more bathroom facilities to maximise comfort and value.
