This three-bedroom terraced house in Roath, Cardiff, presents a mixed bag of advantages and disadvantages. Its location in Roath is a strong selling point, offering convenient access to local amenities, parks, schools (Ysgol Y Berllan Deg and Albany Primary are particularly close), and excellent transport links to Cardiff city centre via train and bus. The proximity to Roath Park is also a desirable feature for families and outdoor enthusiasts.

However, the property’s condition presents a significant drawback. The provided images show that the property is in need of modernisation. Carpets, wallpaper, kitchen and bathroom fittings all appear dated and potentially require upgrading or replacement. This will likely entail considerable expenditure for a prospective buyer. Furthermore, the property’s small plot size may be a limiting factor for some buyers seeking more outdoor space.

While comparable properties in the area range in price and condition, the £240,000 asking price may be slightly ambitious considering the work needed. Potential buyers must carefully weigh the cost of renovation against the desirability of the location. A thorough survey is essential to determine any hidden structural issues before committing to a purchase. Despite the need for updating, the location’s strengths may prove attractive to buyers willing to undertake a refurbishment project.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. Disclamer: This is our opition and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research.
