An exceptional opportunity to acquire this elegant and character-rich mid-terrace residence, ideally located just a short stroll from the vibrant amenities of Wellfield Road and the serene beauty of Roath Park.
Offering around 1,500 sq ft of beautifully proportioned living space, this charming period home is brimming with original features including Minton tiled flooring, ornate fireplaces, sash windows, and intricate ceiling details that together create a true sense of warmth and history.
The traditional entrance hallway leads to three spacious and distinct reception rooms, thoughtfully preserved in their original layout to offer both sociable entertaining areas and quiet retreats. At the rear, a versatile lean-to provides the ideal space for a utility room, creative nook, or home office, adapting easily to modern lifestyles.
The well-appointed kitchen, accessed via the dining room, opens directly onto a peaceful, enclosed rear garden, a sun-drenched haven with lane access that’s perfect for afternoon relaxation or evening gatherings. A charming front garden adds further curb appeal.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress with three generously sized double bedrooms, a substantial four-piece family bathroom featuring a luxurious roll-top bath, and a compact study area on the landing. The spacious loft offers clear potential for future expansion (subject to permissions), allowing you to grow into the home as needed.
Located in a catchment for highly regarded local schools and just moments from independent cafés, boutique shops, and leafy parks, this is a home that effortlessly balances period charm with everyday convenience. Roath Park’s boating lake, rose gardens, and open green spaces are just a short walk away, while Cardiff city centre remains easily accessible.
Rich in character and full of potential, this is a house with soul ready to welcome its next chapter.
