A spacious Victorian mid-terrace close to Cardiff city centre, offered chain-free and ready for renovation. The house provides three double bedrooms, a large front reception with bay window and an open-plan kitchen/breakfast room that opens onto a private rear garden. Its solid brick construction and period proportions make it a strong candidate for sympathetic updating to increase comfort and value.
This home suits families or buyers who want a project in a commuter-friendly location. Transport links are excellent, with easy access to bus routes, nearby train stations and the M4; amenities including cafés, shops and green spaces are within a short walk. The layout includes useful ground-floor cloakroom and utility plumbing, and the generous master bedroom spans the full width of the property.
Important practical points: the property needs modernisation throughout and some elements appear to need attention (roof noted as potential issue). The mid-terrace has solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation, older double glazing (pre-2002) and a single family bathroom, so buyers should budget for energy-efficiency upgrades and possible rewiring/heating improvements. The area has high crime statistics and is in a very deprived ward, which will be a consideration for some purchasers.
In summary: a characterful period house with good space and location, ideal for an owner-occupier family or buyer seeking renovation potential. Chain-free freehold ownership and a private garden add to the appeal, but scope and cost of necessary works should be factored into any offer.
