Welcome to no.1, a much-loved home that has been in the same family for two generations, a testament to the care and attention that has gone into its upkeep over the years. Set on a quiet residential road in the sought-after Rhiwbina area, this attractive semi-detached property combines original character features with modern updates, making it an ideal choice for those looking for a home ready to move straight into while still offering scope to add value in the future.
On approach, the property presents a welcoming frontage with driveway parking leading to a garage with pitched roof, providing both secure storage and future potential for conversion into a garden room, office, or workshop if desired. The open porch immediately sets the tone, with its charming mosaic tiled floor, original front door, and decorative panelling with stained glass inserts, a wonderful introduction to the blend of character and modern touches that continue throughout the house.
Inside, the home has recently undergone several thoughtful improvements, including a full rewire, newly fitted internal doors, and updated banister and balustrades, ensuring it is well-maintained and ready for its next chapter. The layout offers excellent space for family living, with two generous reception rooms and a large kitchen diner.
The front reception room is bright and welcoming, enhanced by a large bay window that floods the room with natural light. This is a versatile space, equally suited for formal entertaining or relaxing evenings with family. The rear reception is equally appealing, featuring glass sliding doors that open directly onto the sunny west-facing patio and garden beyond. This seamless connection to the outdoors creates a lovely setting for both everyday living and summer gatherings.
At the heart of the home is a spacious kitchen diner, designed with family life in mind. A bay window to the side adds further natural light, and there is ample space for a breakfast table, making it a sociable hub of the house. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units providing generous storage and counter space, ensuring both practicality and style. A door leads directly out to the rear garden, offering convenience and enhancing the flow between indoor and outdoor living.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-presented bedrooms. Two are excellent-sized doubles, offering plenty of room for furnishings and storage, while the third is a comfortable single, perfect for a child’s bedroom, nursery, or home office. The recently fitted bathroom has been finished to a modern standard, fully tiled and fitted with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with glass shower screen and pedestal wash hand basin. A separate WC completes the upstairs accommodation, adding to the practicality for family living.
The west-facing rear garden is a particular highlight. Offering a high degree of privacy, it is mainly laid to lawn with a sunny patio area directly accessible from the rear reception. The garden is ideal for children to play, for summer entertaining, or simply for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. Importantly, the garden also offers ample room to extend the property, should buyers wish to create a larger open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, subject to planning consent.
The garage, with its pitched roof, provides excellent secure storage, whether for vehicles, bikes, or garden equipment, and as mentioned, also presents conversion potential.
This home is offered for sale with no onward chain, making the process smoother for prospective buyers.
The location is another significant advantage. Rhiwbina is one of Cardiff’s most desirable suburbs, known for its welcoming community, leafy surroundings, and excellent amenities. From the property, it is just a ten-minute walk into Rhiwbina village, where you’ll find a selection of independent shops, cafés, and local services. The area is also well connected, with Birchgrove train station close by, offering convenient links into Cardiff city centre for commuters. For leisure, nearby Caedelyn Park and other local green spaces provide lovely spots for walking, picnics, and recreation, while the wider area offers well-regarded schools and family-friendly facilities.
All in all, the property presents a rare opportunity to purchase a home that combines character, practicality, and future potential in equal measure. It has been carefully maintained and improved, making it immediately comfortable to live in, yet it still allows buyers the chance to extend, adapt and upgrade to suit their own lifestyle. With its west-facing garden, spacious layout, and sought-after Rhiwbina location, this is a property that will appeal to a wide range of buyers, from young families to downsizers seeking convenience and community.
