A compact three-bedroom family home on a quiet cul-de-sac in St. Mellons, suited to first-time buyers, young professionals or investors seeking a straightforward suburban property. The house offers two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen, downstairs cloakroom and three bedrooms across two floors, plus a single garage and off-street parking. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the property is freehold with no flood risk.
Internally the layout is practical and rooms are a manageable size for the overall footprint (approximately 600 sq ft). The brick-built, early-1990s construction has double glazing (install date unknown) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The rear garden and plot are small which keeps maintenance low but limits outdoor space and extension potential.
Important considerations: the area records higher crime levels and is classed as very deprived, and council tax is above average. The property is described as generally in good order but measurements and services have not been independently tested—buyers should commission a survey and service checks. The home’s compact size and small plot make it best for buyers prioritising location, low-maintenance living or rental potential rather than larger-family needs.
Overall this is a practical, affordable entry into Cardiff homeownership, offering immediate occupation potential and straightforward management. Those seeking more space, gardens or a quieter, lower-crime location should look elsewhere; investors will find rental demand aided by local amenities and good connectivity.
