This chain-free, two-double-bedroom first-floor flat offers a straightforward step onto the property ladder in CF3. The accommodation includes a spacious lounge, a well-lit kitchen, bathroom, and useful storage, set within a mid-20th century low-rise block with communal gardens. The long lease (934 years) and low ground rent make ownership predictable and buyer-friendly.
The flat is presented in good order throughout and benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing (installation date unknown) and a manageable service charge. At 711 sq ft, the layout is generous for a first home or rental investment and is well placed for local shops, bus routes and community facilities including Llanrumney leisure centre.
Buyers should be aware of a few practical considerations. The building dates from 1967–1975 and walls are cavity-built with no installed insulation assumed, so buyers may wish to budget for energy-efficiency improvements. The local area records above-average crime levels and is described as very deprived; purchasers wanting a quieter or higher‑value neighbourhood should factor that in.
Overall this flat is aimed at first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-entry, chain-free purchase with scope to personalise. It’s practical, well-sized and economically predictable, but energy upgrades and local-area factors are realistic trade-offs to consider.
