This Victorian three-bedroom mid-terrace on Wilfred Street blends period character with practical family living. The bay-fronted living room and separate dining area create bright, sociable ground-floor space, while the modern kitchen and handy utility give everyday convenience. A good-sized rear garden with patio and gated access is a rare benefit for a terraced plot.
Upstairs, three bedrooms retain original fireplaces that add charm and character; the property also offers a ground-floor bathroom and a first-floor shower room, both usefully fitted. The house is freehold with an EPC in the low C band and scope for improvement to boost efficiency and value.
Practical points to note: the property dates from the early 20th century and the stone walls are likely uninsulated, while the double glazing was installed before 2002. The area is very deprived economically, which may affect long-term demand and resale values despite low local crime and good transport links to Cardiff.
Overall this is a well-presented, average-sized family home or buy-to-let opportunity that suits buyers seeking period detail, outdoor space and straightforward accommodation. Some energy-efficiency or insulation upgrades could both reduce running costs and increase the property’s market appeal.
