## Description

This period terraced house on Gelligaer Street, Cardiff, offers a fantastic opportunity for those looking for a project with plenty of potential. In need of full refurbishment throughout, it would make an ideal purchase for a first-time buyer keen to put their own stamp on a home, or for an investor looking to add value.

The property retains a number of fabulous original features including solid wood floors and character fireplaces, which provide a wonderful foundation to build upon during renovation. The current layout offers three bedrooms upstairs with a bathroom on the ground floor, though there is scope to reconfigure and relocate the bathroom to the first floor if desired. With generous living spaces and an enclosed rear garden, this home has all the ingredients to be transformed into something truly special.

Gelligaer Street is located in the ever-popular Cathays area of Cardiff, a sought-after location for first-time buyers, young professionals and investors. The area benefits from close proximity to Cardiff University, Heath Hospital and the city centre, as well as excellent transport links. Local shops, cafés and amenities are all within easy reach, and Roath Park and Cathays Terrace are just a short walk away.

This is a rare chance to take on a character property in a prime Cardiff location and unlock its full potential.

We are advised by the vendor that provisions of electricity, water and sewerage are connected to a mains supply, and no materials used in construction may impact a buyer's enjoyment, mortgage availability, or insurance availability, and there are no issues or restrictions on mobile signal/coverage.

- **Rent ratio:** 0.6% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £175,000
- **Target investor price (1%):** £140,000

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
