A freehold end-of-terrace in CF5 presented as two fully renovated, self-contained apartments — a ready-made investment or part-live/part-let opportunity. Both units have new kitchens, bathrooms and carpets and the building has been refurbished to a high standard, so immediate lettings or short-term lets are possible with minimal initial work.
Positioned in a small plot on a Victorian terrace, the property suits investors seeking turn-key rental income in a city location. Broadband and mobile signals are strong and there is no flooding risk. The freehold, chain-free sale gives flexibility: keep both units as rental income, occupy one and let the other, or operate short-term lets at higher gross yields (with increased management demand).
Buyers should note the property is compact (approx. 667 sq ft overall) and sits in an area classified as very deprived; surrounding amenities and transport links are mixed. The EPC rating is F and council tax is described as expensive — both factors that may affect running costs and tenant demand. The small rear garden and limited plot size also constrain exterior expansion options.
This is a practical investment for buyers who value immediate income and a low-refurbishment entry into Cardiff’s rental market. The recent full refurbishment reduces short-term capital expenditure, but plan for energy-efficiency upgrades and ongoing management costs if pursuing short-term rentals.
