Description

No Chain. This handsome bay-fronted mid-terrace home is tucked away in a quiet residential part of Gelligaer Street, directly opposite a small park and playground. The property beautifully combines period character features with practical living space, making it an ideal home for families or professionals.

Inside, the accommodation offers a bright bay-fronted lounge with parquet flooring and a feature fireplace, a spacious kitchen/diner with integrated appliances, and an adjoining sitting room with doors opening to the rear garden. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, including two generous doubles with fitted storage, and a well-appointed family bathroom.

The rear garden provides a mix of paved, lawn and seating areas with mature planting and useful rear access, while the front garden is attractively set behind a low brick wall and tiled pathway.

Area Guide:
Located in the heart of Cathays, Gelligaer Street is within easy reach of Cardiff city centre and a wealth of local amenities. The area is popular with families, young professionals and students thanks to its proximity to Cardiff University, the University Hospital of Wales, and excellent transport connections. There are a range of local shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants nearby, while Roath Park with its lake and gardens is just a short stroll away. Public transport links are well served, with frequent bus routes and nearby rail stations at Cathays and Heath Low Level offering easy access across Cardiff and beyond. Local schools, both primary and secondary, are within walking distance, adding further appeal for families.

This is a superb opportunity to acquire a traditional Cardiff home in a sought-after and vibrant location.
