Set on a generous plot in Rumney, this three-bedroom semi-detached home offers practical family space with strong commuting and amenity links. The property includes two reception rooms, a garage, driveway and a large private rear garden — useful for families or buyers seeking extension or landscaping potential. Double glazing and freehold tenure are ready advantages.
The house dates from the 1930–1949 era and is of average overall size (approx. 948 sq ft). Heating is via electric storage heaters and there is a single bathroom, so the home will suit buyers comfortable with modest running costs now and potential modernisation later. The property sits in a very deprived local area classification, with average local crime levels and above-average council tax (Band E) — factors to weigh against purchase price and long-term budgets.
Location is a clear plus: a short walk to local shops, schools and leisure facilities, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband for home working. The garage and driveway add practical parking and storage not always found in similar houses. Viewings are recommended for first-time buyers or investors looking for a refurbishment opportunity in an established Cardiff suburb.
Important notes: services and appliances have not been tested; buyers should commission surveys. The property will reward buyers prepared to update heating, bathroom and cosmetic finishes to increase comfort and resale value.
