NO CHAIN!
There are very few apartments in Pontcanna that enjoy an outlook quite like this. From the front windows, the view stretches directly across Llandaff Fields, giving these rooms a wonderful sense of space and greenery throughout the year.
Melrose Court is one of those developments that has quietly stood the test of time. Built during the 1930s, in art deco style - the apartments are known for their generous proportions. This ground floor apartment has been completely renovated in recent years and has been looked after with obvious care. The original wooden parquet and the terrazzo flooring remains throughout the property.
Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles and there is an ease to the way the apartment works. Everything feels practical, with the well fitted kitchen giving direct access to the balcony. Residents' parking and a seperate storage/ utility unit directly underneath the apartment, housing boiler, washing machine and tumble dryer. complete the picture.
The absence of an onward chain makes for a straightforward move.
Outside the gates, Pontcanna needs little introduction. Llandaff Fields is opposite, Bute Park is a few minutes away and the cafés, restaurants and independent shops along Pontcanna Street and Cathedral Road are all within walking distance. Cardiff city centre can be reached on foot, making this an apartment that suits those who want green space without giving up the convenience of city living.
