This mid-1970s terraced house in Pentwyn offers an affordable entry into Cardiff homeownership or a practical buy-to-let prospect. The layout includes an open-plan kitchen/diner, a well-lit reception room with garden access, and a converted loft that provides valuable extra living or work space. The rear courtyard garden and separate outbuilding add usable storage and private outdoor space on a small plot.
The property is freehold, around 1,044 sq ft, and in generally good condition but shows signs it would benefit from updating. Interior features include double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators, while the living room has laminate flooring and an original ‘popcorn’ ceiling. There is one bathroom serving three bedrooms, two doubles and one single, so families should note the single-shower arrangement.
Construction is a system-built mid-terrace typical of the late 1960s–1970s and is assumed to have no wall insulation; buyers should factor in potential insulation and energy-efficiency improvements. The area has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal with low crime, good local transport links and nearby schools and parks, though the wider locality is classified as very deprived—important for investors to consider when assessing yields and tenant demand.
Overall, this house suits first-time buyers who want a ready-to-live-in home with scope to personalise, or investors looking for a straightforward rental property with refurbishment potential. Key practical considerations are the single bathroom, small garden, and likely costs to upgrade insulation and modernise some interiors.
