| Description |
A delightful freehold property close to Cardiff city centre and built in the 1920’s to an unusual design that stands out distinctively in the mainly Victorian street surrounding; located in a quiet residential area yet conveniently situated for quality schools, shops and restaurants in nearby Llandaff, Pontcanna and Canton. There are three beautiful parks close by including Llandaff Fields which affords a delightful riverbank walk to the centre of the city.
It has 4 bedrooms, a dining room, a fitted kitchen / breakfast area and a large through lounge opening - via “french windows” - to a raised balcony overlooking the south-facing, attractive and private, rear garden complete with a detached garage.
This property has been fully restored to reflect its era and makes a superb family home of real character. It is double fronted with an equally attractive front garden bounded by wrought iron railings.
There is no chain and early viewing is strongly recommended.
The property is comprised of ;-
FRONT GARDEN
The external façade of the property is classically simple being double-fronted with windows to both sides, a central front door and three windows to the first floor.
It is entered through a central gate via a front garden full of attractive plants and bounded by high-quality wrought iron railings atop a small wall.
ENTRANCE HALL
The original front door - with stained glass inserts - opens onto a hallway with 1920’s parquet flooring and a balustraded stairway to the first floor with under space for coats and umbrellas. The upper staircase is well lit with its own external window. This central hallway – heated by a radiator - leads off through doorways to the dining room, lounge and kitchen.
DINING ROOM (4.5m X 3.4m)
A spacious room with a bay window overlooking the front garden that makes for a pleasant dining area. The room is heated by a radiator.
LOUNGE (6m X 3.6m)
This imposing room is the full width of the house and has windows at both ends overlooking the front and rear gardens. Its focal point is the original mantelpiece with a restored and fully working open-fireplace which can offer an alternative heat source to the two radiators.
GARDEN BALCONY
The “french windows” open onto a balcony which can become an alternative breakfast or reading area (dependent upon the weather). Although it overlooks the rear garden - which is at a lower level - it still offers a very private space.
KITCHEN AND BREAKFAST AREA (5.4m X 2.5m)
A fully fitted kitchen of generous proportions with space for fully integrated appliances. It has a window overlooking the rear garden and has a small breakfast bar at one end with a side window. The room is heated by a radiator and leads off through a doorway to a small lobby with rear window.
DOWNSTAIRS WC
This is located in a small room off the lobby and is complete with a wash-hand basin, radiator and window.
REAR GARDEN AND GARAGE
This is reached by external stairs from the rear lobby and is completely private and self-contained, bounded on all sides by hedging. An attractive garden with plants of many varieties, including a mature holly tree; it also has a small lawn.
Its south-facing orientation means that it has the sun for most of the day (subject, of course, to the weather). The garden can be accessed by a side entrance or through the double gates which allow entry to the garage securely located within the curtilage of the property.
A small cellar area to the property is located through a door accessed from the garden; this provides a useful storage facility for logs and garden tools etc.
UPPER LANDING
This is central area accessed by the staircase and lit by a large window. This landing leads into the doorways to the four bedrooms and bathroom.
Off this landing is a full length storage cupboard that contains the hot water tank and provides a useful drying facility.
FIRST DOUBLE BEDROOM (3.1m X 3.5m)
This is a double bedroom with a window to the front and has a useful fitted cupboard for storing effects. It is heated by a radiator.
SECOND DOUBLE BEDROOM (2.9m X 3.7m)
This is a double bedroom to the front of the property and benefits from a central heating radiator.
THIRD DOUBLE BEDROOM (3.6m X 3m)
This double bedroom overlooks the rear garden and has a fitted wardrobe and storage area almost the length of one wall; it too has a central heating radiator.
FOURTH BEDROOM / STUDY (2.6m X 2.8m)
This room is currently used as a study / dressing room but could easily be returned to its original use as a single bedroom. It has fully fitted wardrobes the full length of one wall, a radiator and the central heating boiler which is located on the external wall.
BATHROOM
The bathroom contains a wash stand and basin, a WC and a bath complete with a power shower. There is a heated towel rail and there is decorative tiling throughout. The room has two external windows.
ATTIC
There is an attic that runs the full length of the property with reasonable head space. This is accessed by means of a purpose built folding metal stairs through a hatch in the upper landing.
CENTRAL HEATING
The property benefits from a full gas fired central heating system with radiators throughout the property.
