3 bed terraced house for sale

Flaxland Avenue, Cardiff CF14

Within a short walk of the University Hospital at Heath is this deceptively spacious Freehold house of character that requires upgrading but retains some lovely period features. It is a double-bayed mid-terrace house with lower front elevations of facing brick, upper elevations of painted rough-cast render, and the roof is of slates with a tile-hung gable. At the front is a walled forecourt and a recessed entrance porch opening into the hall. At the rear is a paved patio, and steps lead down to a mature garden of good size. There is a vehicular lane at the rear which accesses the garage. The property has gas central heating from a Baxi combi boiler in bedroom 3, and there are radiators virtually throughout. It also has the added benefit of double-glazing. The EPC Rating is D. The Council Tax Band is E. The flood risk in the area is deemed very low.

There are excellent local amenities that include shops, stores and supermarkets, junior and senior schools that include a popular Welsh-language primary school, parks and leisure facilities that include the lovely Roath Park and its famous lake, Heath Park, and Maindy Leisure Centre, a local Post Office and Library. Nearby Whitchurch Road has fast become well-known as a hub of local restaurants, bistros, cafes and coffee shops, and there are popular pubs close-by too. Excellent bus services to and from the city centre serve the local community, and it is also only a short drive to Eastern Avenue and Northern Avenue for access on to the M4.
